In virtio the host decides whether the guest uses the DMA
API or not using the strangely named VIRTIO_F_ACCESS_PLATFORM
bit (which really indicates whether the DMA API is used or not)
For hardened virtio on TDX we want to enforce that that swiotlb is
always used, which requires using the DMA API. While IO wouldn't
really work without the swiotlb, it might be possible that an
attacker forces swiotlbless IO to manipulate memory in the guest.
So we want to force the DMA API (which then forces swiotlb),
but without relying on the host.
There is already an arch_has_restricted_memory_acces hook for
this, which is currently used only by s390. Enable
the config option for the hook for x86 and enable it for TDX.
