vfio: Set DMA ownership for VFIO devices
Claim group dma ownership when an IOMMU group is set to a container, and release the dma ownership once the iommu group is unset from the container. This change disallows some unsafe bridge drivers to bind to non-ACS bridges while devices under them are assigned to user space. This is an intentional enhancement and possibly breaks some existing configurations. The recommendation to such an affected user would be that the previously allowed host bridge driver was unsafe for this use case and to continue to enable assignment of devices within that group, the driver should be unbound from the bridge device or replaced with the pci-stub driver. For any bridge driver, we consider it unsafe if it satisfies any of the following conditions: 1) The bridge driver uses DMA. Calling pci_set_master() or calling any kernel DMA API (dma_map_*() and etc.) is an indicate that the driver is doing DMA. 2) If the bridge driver uses MMIO, it should be tolerant to hostile userspace also touching the same MMIO registers via P2P DMA attacks. If the bridge driver turns out to be a safe one, it could be used as before by setting the driver's .driver_managed_dma field, just like what we have done in the pcieport driver.
