iommu/arm-smmu: Break insecure users by disabling bypass by default

Browse Source 
If you're bisecting why your peripherals stopped working, it's
probably this CL.  Specifically if you see this in your dmesg:
  Unexpected global fault, this could be serious
...then it's almost certainly this CL.

Running your IOMMU-enabled peripherals with the IOMMU in bypass mode
is insecure and effectively disables the protection they provide.
There are few reasons to allow unmatched stream bypass, and even fewer
good ones.

This patch starts the transition over to make it much harder to run
your system insecurely.  Expected steps:

1. By default disable bypass (so anyone insecure will notice) but make
   it easy for someone to re-enable bypass with just a KConfig change.
   That's this patch.

2. After people have had a little time to come to grips with the fact
   that they need to set their IOMMUs properly and have had time to
   dig into how to do this, the KConfig will be eliminated and bypass
   will simply be disabled.  Folks who are truly upset and still
   haven't fixed their system can either figure out how to add
   'arm-smmu.disable_bypass=n' to their command line or revert the
   patch in their own private kernel.  Of course these folks will be
   less secure.

Say Y here to (by default) disable bypass streams such that
incoming transactions from devices that are not attached to
an iommu domain will report an abort back to the device and
will not be allowed to pass through the SMMU.
Any old kernels that existed before this KConfig was
introduced would default to _allowing_ bypass (AKA the
equivalent of NO for this config). However the default for
this option is YES because the old behavior is insecure.
There are few reasons to allow unmatched stream bypass, and
even fewer good ones. If saying YES here breaks your board
you should work on fixing your board. This KConfig option
is expected to be removed in the future and we'll simply
hardcode the bypass disable in the code.
NOTE: the kernel command line parameter
'arm-smmu.disable_bypass' will continue to override this
config.
