pseries: Rework implementation of TCE bypass
On the pseries machine the IOMMU (aka TCE tables) is always active for all PCI and VIO devices. Mostly to simplify the SLOF firmware, we implement an extension which allows the IOMMU to be temporarily disabled for certain devices. Currently this is implemented by setting the device's DMAContext pointer to NULL (thus reverting to qemu's default no-IOMMU DMA behaviour), then replacing it when bypass mode is disabled. This approach causes a bunch of complications though. It complexifies the management of the DMAContext lifetimes, it's problematic for savevm/loadvm, and it means that while bypass is active we have nowhere to store the device's LIOBN (Logical IO Bus Number, used to identify DMA address spaces). At present we regenerate the LIOBN from other address information but this restricts how we can allocate LIOBNs. This patch gives up on this approach, replacing it with the much simpler one of having a 'bypass' boolean flag in the TCE state structure.
