The nature of a virtio-mmio node is discovered by the virtio driver at
probe time. However the DMA relation between devices must be described
statically. When a virtio-mmio node is a virtio-iommu device, it needs an
"#iommu-cells" property as specified by bindings/iommu/iommu.txt.
Otherwise, the virtio-mmio device may perform DMA through an IOMMU, which
requires an "iommus" property. Describe these requirements in the
device-tree bindings documentation.

This patch, based on virtio PCI driver, adds support for memory
mapped (platform) virtio device. This should allow environments
like qemu to use virtio-based block & network devices even on
platforms without PCI support.
One can define and register a platform device which resources
will describe memory mapped control registers and "mailbox"
interrupt. Such device can be also instantiated using the Device
Tree node with compatible property equal "virtio,mmio".
