Add a new ioctl for user space to do a vIOMMU allocation. It must be based on a nesting parent HWPT, so take its refcount. IOMMU driver wanting to support vIOMMUs must define its IOMMU_VIOMMU_TYPE_ in the uAPI header and implement a viommu_alloc op in its iommu_ops.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
