Jean-Philippe Brucker b03cbca48d iommu/virtio: Support identity-mapped domains
Support identity domains for devices that do not offer the
VIRTIO_IOMMU_F_BYPASS_CONFIG feature, by creating 1:1 mappings between
the virtual and physical address space. Identity domains created this
way still perform noticeably better than DMA domains, because they don't
have the overhead of setting up and tearing down mappings at runtime.
The performance difference between this and bypass is minimal in
comparison.

It does not matter that the physical addresses in the identity mappings
do not all correspond to memory. By enabling passthrough we are trusting
the device driver and the device itself to only perform DMA to suitable
locations. In some cases it may even be desirable to perform DMA to MMIO
regions.
