powerpc/mm/iommu, vfio/spapr: Put pages on VFIO container shutdown

[ Upstream commit 4b6fad7097f883335b6d9627c883cb7f276d94c9 ]

At the moment the userspace tool is expected to request pinning of
the entire guest RAM when VFIO IOMMU SPAPR v2 driver is present.
When the userspace process finishes, all the pinned pages need to
be put; this is done as a part of the userspace memory context (MM)
destruction which happens on the very last mmdrop().

This approach has a problem that a MM of the userspace process
may live longer than the userspace process itself as kernel threads
use userspace process MMs which was runnning on a CPU where
the kernel thread was scheduled to. If this happened, the MM remains
referenced until this exact kernel thread wakes up again
and releases the very last reference to the MM, on an idle system this
can take even hours.

This moves preregistered regions tracking from MM to VFIO; insteads of
using mm_iommu_table_group_mem_t::used, tce_container::prereg_list is
added so each container releases regions which it has pre-registered.

This changes the userspace interface to return EBUSY if a memory
region is already registered in a container. However it should not
have any practical effect as the only userspace tool available now
does register memory region once per container anyway.

As tce_iommu_register_pages/tce_iommu_unregister_pages are called
under container->lock, this does not need additional locking.
