Subject: [PATCH 1/1] iommu/sva: Invalidate KVA range on kernel TLB flush

The vmalloc() and vfree() functions manage virtually contiguous, but not
necessarily physically contiguous, kernel memory regions. When vfree()
unmaps such a region, it tears down the associated kernel page table
entries and frees the physical pages.

In the IOMMU Shared Virtual Addressing (SVA) context, the IOMMU hardware
shares and walks the CPU's page tables. Architectures like x86 share
static kernel address mappings across all user page tables, allowing the
IOMMU to access the kernel portion of these tables.

Modern IOMMUs often cache page table entries to optimize walk performance,
even for intermediate page table levels. If kernel page table mappings are
changed (e.g., by vfree()), but the IOMMU's internal caches retain stale
entries, Use-After-Free (UAF) vulnerability condition arises. If these
freed page table pages are reallocated for a different purpose, potentially
by an attacker, the IOMMU could misinterpret the new data as valid page
table entries. This allows the IOMMU to walk into attacker-controlled
memory, leading to arbitrary physical memory DMA access or privilege
escalation.

To mitigate this, introduce a new iommu interface to flush IOMMU caches
and fence pending page table walks when kernel page mappings are updated.
This interface should be invoked from architecture-specific code that
manages combined user and kernel page tables.
