[PATCH] vfio iommu type1: Bypass the vma permission check in vfio_pin_pages_remote()

[Jia He]

The permission of vfio iommu is different and incompatible with vma
permission. If the iotlb->perm is IOMMU_NONE (e.g. qemu side), qemu will
simply call unmap ioctl() instead of mapping. Hence vfio_dma_map() can't
map a dma region with NONE permission.

This corner case will be exposed in coming virtio_fs cache_size
commit [1]
 - mmap(NULL, size, PROT_NONE, MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
   memory_region_init_ram_ptr()
 - re-mmap the above area with read/write authority.
 - vfio_dma_map() will be invoked when vfio device is hotplug added.

qemu:
vfio_listener_region_add()
	vfio_dma_map(..., readonly=false)
		map.flags is set to VFIO_DMA_MAP_FLAG_READ|VFIO_..._WRITE
		ioctl(VFIO_IOMMU_MAP_DMA)

kernel:
vfio_dma_do_map()
	vfio_pin_map_dma()
		vfio_pin_pages_remote()
			vaddr_get_pfn()
			...
				check_vma_flags() failed! because
				vm_flags hasn't VM_WRITE && gup_flags
				has FOLL_WRITE

It will report error in qemu log when hotplug adding(vfio) a nvme disk
to qemu guest on an Ampere EMAG server:
"VFIO_MAP_DMA failed: Bad address"
