vdpa: introduce .reset_map operation callback

Some device specific IOMMU parent drivers have long standing bogus
behavior that mistakenly clean up the maps during .reset. By definition,
this is violation to the on-chip IOMMU ops (i.e. .set_map, or .dma_map &
.dma_unmap) in those offending drivers, as the removal of internal maps
is completely agnostic to the upper layer, causing inconsistent view
between the userspace and the kernel. Some userspace app like QEMU gets
around of this brokenness by proactively removing and adding back all
the maps around vdpa device reset, but such workaround actually penalize
other well-behaved driver setup, where vdpa reset always comes with the
associated mapping cost, especially for kernel vDPA devices
(use_va=false) that have high cost on pinning. It's imperative to
rectify this behavior and remove the problematic code from all those
non-compliant parent drivers.

The reason why a separate .reset_map op is introduced is because this
allows a simple on-chip IOMMU model without exposing too much device
implementation detail to the upper vdpa layer. The .dma_map/unmap or
.set_map driver API is meant to be used to manipulate the IOTLB
mappings, and has been abstracted in a way similar to how a real IOMMU
device maps or unmaps pages for certain memory ranges. However, apart
from this there also exists other mapping needs, in which case 1:1
passthrough mapping has to be used by other users (read virtio-vdpa). To
ease parent/vendor driver implementation and to avoid abusing DMA ops in
an unexpacted way, these on-chip IOMMU devices can start with 1:1
passthrough mapping mode initially at the time of creation. Then the
.reset_map op can be used to switch iotlb back to this initial state
without having to expose a complex two-dimensional IOMMU device model.

The .reset_map is not a MUST for every parent that implements the
.dma_map or .set_map API, because device may work with DMA ops directly
by implement their own to manipulate system memory mappings, so don't
have to use .reset_map to achieve a simple IOMMU device model for 1:1
passthrough mapping.
