enforce_cc is still required since it's about memory accesses post
page table walking (no matter the walked table is single stage or
nested).

Ideally expanding uAPI structure size should come with new flag bits.

this one might be a bit special. hwpt_alloc() series was just queued to
iommufd-next. If the nesting series could come together in one cycle
then probably changing it in current way is fine since there is no
existing software. Otherwise we need follow common practice. 😊
