Pull iommufd implementation from Jason Gunthorpe:
 "iommufd is the user API to control the IOMMU subsystem as it relates
  to managing IO page tables that point at user space memory.

  It takes over from drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_type1.c (aka the VFIO
  container) which is the VFIO specific interface for a similar idea.

  We see a broad need for extended features, some being highly IOMMU
  device specific:
   - Binding iommu_domain's to PASID/SSID
   - Userspace IO page tables, for ARM, x86 and S390
   - Kernel bypassed invalidation of user page tables
   - Re-use of the KVM page table in the IOMMU
   - Dirty page tracking in the IOMMU
   - Runtime Increase/Decrease of IOPTE size
   - PRI support with faults resolved in userspace

  Many of these HW features exist to support VM use cases - for instance
  the combination of PASID, PRI and Userspace IO Page Tables allows an
  implementation of DMA Shared Virtual Addressing (vSVA) within a guest.
  Dirty tracking enables VM live migration with SRIOV devices and PASID
  support allow creating "scalable IOV" devices, among other things.

  As these features are fundamental to a VM platform they need to be
  uniformly exposed to all the driver families that do DMA into VMs,
  which is currently VFIO and VDPA"
