Subject: [PATCH 00/12] Consolidate domain cache invalidation

The IOMMU hardware cache needs to be invalidated whenever the mappings
in the domain are changed. Currently, domain cache invalidation is
scattered across different places, causing several issues:

- IOMMU IOTLB Invalidation: This is done by iterating through the domain
  IDs of each domain using the following code:

        xa_for_each(&dmar_domain->iommu_array, i, info)
                iommu_flush_iotlb_psi(info->iommu, dmar_domain,
                                      start_pfn, nrpages,
                                      list_empty(&gather->freelist), 0);

  This code could theoretically cause a use-after-free problem because
  there's no lock to protect the "info" pointer within the loop.

- Inconsistent Invalidation Methods: Different domain types implement
  their own cache invalidation methods, making the code difficult to
  maintain. For example, the DMA domain, SVA domain, and nested domain
  have similar cache invalidation code scattered across different files.

- SVA Domain Inconsistency: The SVA domain implementation uses a
  completely different data structure to track attached devices compared
  to other domains. This creates unnecessary differences and, even
  worse, leads to duplicate IOTLB invalidation when an SVA domain is
  attached to devices belonging to different IOMMU domains.

- Nested Domain Dependency: The special overlap between a nested domain
  and its parent domain requires a dedicated parent_domain_flush()
  helper function to be called everywhere the parent domain's mapping
  changes.

- Limited Debugging Support: There are currently no debugging aids
  available for domain cache invalidation.

By consolidating domain cache invalidation into a common location, we
can address the issues mentioned above and improve the code's
maintainability and debuggability.
