In CoCo VMs, system memory is encrypted by default.
Device drivers typically rely on the DMA core's
SWIOTLB as a bounce buffer for DMA operations, providing
decrypted memory that can be shared between the guest and
host.

For PCI devices with T-Disp support and Confidential
VMBus devices (https://lkml.org/lkml/2026/7/27/1733) can
perform DMA transfers directly with private/encrypted
memory in a CoCo VM.

To support DMA transfer with encrypted memory, Hyper-V
DMA ops are introduced and bypass some API which may
use swiotlb as bounce buffer.

The DMA ops used is global data structure(see get_arch_
dma_ops() and get_dma_ops() for details). There is no
need to set up for each device individually.

Change since RFC v1:
    * Fix warning, code style issues and make the code
