Some vendor IOMMU drivers are able to declare that it is running in a VM
context. This is very valuable for the features that only want to be
supported on bare metal. Add a capability bit so that it could be used.

And how is it used? Who and how will set it?

Use the existing iommu_capable(). I should add more descriptions about
who and how to use it.

I want to see the code that sets this capability.

Currently we have Intel VT-d and the virt-iommu setting this capability.

  static bool intel_iommu_capable(enum iommu_cap cap)
  {
  	if (cap == IOMMU_CAP_CACHE_COHERENCY)
  		return domain_update_iommu_snooping(NULL) == 1;
  	if (cap == IOMMU_CAP_INTR_REMAP)
  		return irq_remapping_enabled == 1;
+	if (cap == IOMMU_CAP_VIOMMU)
+		return caching_mode_enabled();

  	return false;
  }

And,

+static bool viommu_capable(enum iommu_cap cap)
+{
+	if (cap == IOMMU_CAP_VIOMMU)
+		return true;
+
+	return false;
+}
