vhost-vdpa: batch updating IOTLB mappings
To speed up the memory mapping updating between vhost-vDPA and vDPA
device driver, this patch passes the IOTLB batching flags via IOTLB
API. Two new flags was introduced, VHOST_IOTLB_BATCH_BEGIN is a hint
that a bathced IOTLB updating may be initiated from the
userspace. VHOST_IOTLB_BATCH_END is a hint that userspace has finished
the updating:
VHOST_IOTLB_BATCH_BEGIN
VHOST_IOTLB_UPDATE/VHOST_IOTLB_INVALIDATE
...
VHOST_IOTLB_BATCH_END
Vhost-vDPA can then know that all mappings has been set and can do
optimization like passing all the mappings to the vDPA device driver.
