IOMMU Notifier list is used for notifying IO address mapping changes. Currently VFIO is the only user. However it is possible that future consumer like vhost would like to only listen to part of its notifications (e.g., cache invalidations). This patch introduced IOMMUNotifier and IOMMUNotfierFlag bits for a finer grained control of it. IOMMUNotifier contains a bitfield for the notify consumer describing what kind of notification it is interested in. Currently two kinds of notifications are defined: - IOMMU_NOTIFIER_MAP: for newly mapped entries (additions) - IOMMU_NOTIFIER_UNMAP: for entries to be removed (cache invalidates) When registering the IOMMU notifier, we need to specify one or multiple types of messages to listen to. When notifications are triggered, its type will be checked against the notifier's type bits, and only notifiers with registered bits will be notified. (For any IOMMU implementation, an in-place mapping change should be notified with an UNMAP followed by a MAP.)
