Subject: [PATCH v12 34/46] arm64: RMI: Prevent Device mappings for Realms

Physical device assignment is not supported by RMM v1.0, so it
doesn't make much sense to allow device mappings within the realm.
Prevent them when the guest is a realm.

Signed-off-by: Steven Price <steven.price@....com>
---
Changes from v6:
 * Fix the check in user_mem_abort() to prevent all pages that are not
   guest_memfd() from being mapped into the protected half of the IPA.
Changes from v5:
 * Also prevent accesses in user_mem_abort()
