Add functions to load root entry table from old kernel, and to save updated

Add two member in struct intel_iommu, to store the RTA in old kernel, and
the mapped virt address of it.

Please explain a bit what is "RTA" in patch log, it is unclear to most of people
who do not know iommu details.



If people want to understand this patchset, I assume they have read the vt-d specs. RTA is defined clearly in this spec.
