An IOMMU_VIOMMU_TYPE_DEFAULT doesn't need a free() op since the core can free everything in the destroy(). Now with the new vDEVICE structure, it might want to allocate its own vDEVICEs.

Add a default_viommu_ops for driver to hook ops for default vIOMMUs.

Why? arm_smmu is now creating its own viommu object, so who will use this?

Do we have any use for the default mode? It is already a bit confusing, can we just drop it?
