AMD HW-vIOMMU feature requires IOMMU driver to specify a unique 16-bit
Guest ID (GID) for each VM. This ID is used to index into various
data structures for configuring the hardware.

Introduce amd_iommu_vminfo_hash hashtable to store per-vm
configuration,
which uses 16-bit GID as a hash key along with helper functions.


somehow it's unclear to me whether this series is only for hw
supporting vf or broader hw supporting nested capability. for
the latter case is GID still necessary?

I am restructuring the series and might be moving GID stuff until later when introduce broader hw support for AMD vIOMMU.
