[PATCH] pseries/iommu: Tweak ddw behavior in presence of pmem

Recently we discovered an issue on pseries guests that prevents pci
devices from accessing pmem memory via DMA. Performing such an
operation will cause PHB to freeze the corresponding partition
endpoint and in some scenarios will shutdown the disk that hosts the
rootfs.
A fix for this is in works until then this patch proposes to disable
DDW if pmem nodes are present in the device-tree. This would force all
DMA from I/O adapters through default 2-GB window and prevent direct
access of pmem memory which is located beyond 4-TB guest physical
address.
Since this change can have performance penalty for cases where its
known that i/o adapters wont be performing DMA to pmem, the patch
adds new args to the 'disable_ddw' kernel commanline flag with
following possible values:
'default' : Enable DDW only if no Pmem nodes present in device-tree
'Yes' : Disable DDW always
'No' : Force enable DDW even if Pmem nodes present in device-tree
