[RFC 2/4] virtio: Override device's DMA OPS with virtio_direct_dma_ops selectively

Now that virtio core always needs all virtio devices to have DMA OPS, we
need to make sure that the structure it points is the right one. In the
absence of VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM flag QEMU expects GPA from guest kernel.
In such case, virtio device must use default virtio_direct_dma_ops DMA OPS
structure which transforms scatter gather buffer addresses as GPA. This
DMA OPS override must happen as early as possible during virtio device
initializatin sequence before virtio core starts using given device's DMA
OPS callbacks for I/O transactions. This change detects device's IOMMU flag
and does the override in case the flag is cleared.
