[PATCH] iommu/amd: flush IOTLB for specific domains only (v2)

Change History
--------------

v2: changes suggested by Joerg
- add flush flag to improve efficiency of flush operation

v1:
- The idea behind flush queues is to defer the IOTLB flushing
  for domains for which the mappings are no longer valid. We
  add such domains in queue_add(), and when the queue size
  reaches FLUSH_QUEUE_SIZE, we perform __queue_flush().

  Since we have already taken lock before __queue_flush()
  is called, we need to make sure the IOTLB flushing is
  performed as quickly as possible.

  In the current implementation, we perform IOTLB flushing
  for all domains irrespective of which ones were actually
  added in the flush queue initially. This can be quite
  expensive especially for domains for which unmapping is
  not required at this point of time.

  This patch makes use of domain information in
  'struct flush_queue_entry' to make sure we only flush
  IOTLBs for domains who need it, skipping others.
