Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 1/3] iommu: Add set/unset_dev_data_user ops

The device behind an IOMMU might be used in the user space by a VM. So, it
might have some user space data. For example, a device behind an SMMU has
a static stream ID. In a virtualization use case, both a host environment
and a guest environment have their own Stream IDs. A link (a lookup table)
between the physical Stream ID and the virtual (user) Stream ID is needed
when the host handles the user cache invalidation commands.

Add a pair of new ops to allow user space to forward user_data of a device
via iommufd.
