From: "Liu, Yi L" <yi.l....@linux.intel.com>
This patch adds VFIO_IOMMU_TLB_INVALIDATE to propagate IOMMU TLB
invalidate request from guest to host.
In the case of SVM virtualization on VT-d, host IOMMU driver has
no knowledge of caching structure updates unless the guest
invalidation activities are passed down to the host. So a new
IOCTL is needed to propagate the guest cache invalidation through
VFIO.
