iommu/vt-d: Add iotlb_sync_map callback
Some Intel VT-d hardware implementations don't support memory coherency
for page table walk (presented by the Page-Walk-coherency bit in the
ecap register), so that software must flush the corresponding CPU cache
lines explicitly after each page table entry update.
The iommu_map_sg() code iterates through the given scatter-gather list
and invokes iommu_map() for each element in the scatter-gather list,
which calls into the vendor IOMMU driver through iommu_ops callback. As
the result, a single sg mapping may lead to multiple cache line flushes,
which leads to the degradation of I/O performance after the commit
<c588072bba6b5> ("iommu/vt-d: Convert intel iommu driver to the iommu
ops").
Fix this by adding iotlb_sync_map callback and centralizing the clflush
operations after all sg mappings.
