intel_iommu: support snoop control
SC is required for some kernel features like vhost-vDPA. So this patch
implements basic SC feature. The idea is pretty simple, for software
emulated DMA it would be always coherent. In this case we can simple
advertise ECAP_SC bit. For VFIO and vhost, thing will be more much
complicated, so this patch simply fail the IOMMU notifier
registration.

In the future, we may want to have a dedicated notifiers flag or
similar mechanism to demonstrate the coherency so VFIO could advertise
that if it has VFIO_DMA_CC_IOMMU, for vhost kernel backend we don't
need that since it's a software backend.
