iommu/vt-d: Implement DMAR unit hotplug framework
On Intel platforms, an IO Hub (PCI/PCIe host bridge) may contain DMAR units, so we need to support DMAR hotplug when supporting PCI host bridge hotplug on Intel platforms. According to Section 8.8 "Remapping Hardware Unit Hot Plug" in "Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed IO Architecture Specification Rev 2.2", ACPI BIOS should implement ACPI _DSM method under the ACPI object for the PCI host bridge to support DMAR hotplug. This patch introduces interfaces to parse ACPI _DSM method for DMAR unit hotplug. It also implements state machines for DMAR unit hot-addition and hot-removal. The PCI host bridge hotplug driver should call dmar_hotplug_hotplug() before scanning PCI devices connected for hot-addition and after destroying all PCI devices for hot-removal.
