powerpc/pseries/dma: Enable SWIOTLB
So far the pseries platforms has always been using IOMMU making SWIOTLB unnecessary. Now we want secure guests which means devices can only access certain areas of guest physical memory; we are going to use SWIOTLB for this purpose. This allows SWIOTLB for pseries. By default there is no change in behavior. This enables SWIOTLB when the "swiotlb" kernel parameter is set to "force". With the SWIOTLB enabled, the kernel creates a directly mapped DMA window (using the usual DDW mechanism) and implements SWIOTLB on top of that.
