This patch adds a helper function whether a queue can merge
the segments by an IOMMU.

I'm a little worried about this directly calling into the iommu
API instead of going through the DMA mapping code.  We still have
plenty of iommus not using the iommu layer for DMA mapping.  But at
least this code is in the block layer and not the driver, so maybe
we can live with it.

Careful here - I think this validates the comment I made when this 
function was introduced, in that that name doesn't necesarily mean what 
it sounds like it might mean - "iommu_mapped" was as close as we managed 
to get to a convenient shorthand for "performs DMA through an 
IOMMU-API-enabled IOMMU". Specifically, it does not imply that 
translation is *currently* active; if you boot with "iommu=pt" or 
equivalent this will still return true even though the device will be 
using direct/SWIOTLB DMA ops without any IOMMU translation.

Thank you for your comments. I understood the mean of "iommu_mapped" and
this patch's condition causes a problem on iommu=pt.
So, I'll add and additional condition like
"domain->type == IOMMU_DOMAIN_DMA" to check whether the translation is
currently active on the domain or not.

Best regards,
Yoshihiro Shimoda
