In this patch, IOMMUNotifier.{start|end} are introduced to store section
information for a specific notifier. When notification occurs, we not
only check the notification type (MAP|UNMAP), but also check whether the
notified iova range overlaps with the range of specific IOMMU notifier,
and skip those notifiers if not in the listened range.
When removing an region, we need to make sure we removed the correct
VFIOGuestIOMMU by checking the IOMMUNotifier.start address as well.
This patch is solving the problem that vfio-pci devices receive
duplicated UNMAP notification on x86 platform when vIOMMU is there. The
issue is that x86 IOMMU has a (0, 2^64-1) IOMMU region, which is
splitted by the (0xfee00000, 0xfeefffff) IRQ region. AFAIK
this (splitted IOMMU region) is only happening on x86.
This patch also helps vhost to leverage the new interface as well, so
that vhost won't get duplicated cache flushes. In that sense, it's an
slight performance improvement.
