Sheng Yang 522c68c441 KVM: Enable snooping control for supported hardware
Memory aliases with different memory type is a problem for guest. For the guest
without assigned device, the memory type of guest memory would always been the
same as host(WB); but for the assigned device, some part of memory may be used
as DMA and then set to uncacheable memory type(UC/WC), which would be a conflict of
host memory type then be a potential issue.

Snooping control can guarantee the cache correctness of memory go through the
DMA engine of VT-d.

Mark McLoughlin 682edb4c01 KVM: Fix assigned devices circular locking dependency
kvm->slots_lock is outer to kvm->lock, so take slots_lock
in kvm_vm_ioctl_assign_device() before taking kvm->lock,
rather than taking it in kvm_iommu_map_memslots().

Joerg Roedel c4fa386428 KVM: rename vtd.c to iommu.c
Impact: file renamed

The code in the vtd.c file can be reused for other IOMMUs as well. So
rename it to make it clear that it handle more than VT-d.
