[PATCH] vfio iommu: Add dma limit capability

From: Matthew Rosato
Date: Fri Sep 11 2020 - 12:44:39 EST


Commit 492855939bdb ("vfio/type1: Limit DMA mappings per container")
added the ability to limit the number of memory backed DMA mappings.
However on s390x, when lazy mapping is in use, we use a very large
number of concurrent mappings. Let's provide the limitation to
userspace via the IOMMU info chain so that userspace can take
appropriate mitigation.
