This adds the APIs for bounce buffer specified domain

be mapped with bounce buffered pages instead. This will
enhance the security of DMA buffer by isolating the DMA
attacks from malicious devices.
Please reuse the swiotlb code instead of reinventing it.
I don't think we are doing the same thing as swiotlb here. But it's
always a good thing to reuse code if possible. I considered this when
writing this code, but I found it's hard to do. Do you mind pointing
me to the code which I could reuse?
Best regards,
