The original code put five u32 before a u64 expansion[10] array. Five is
odd, this will cause trouble in the extension of the structure by adding
new features. This patch moves to use u8 for reserved field to avoid
future alignment risk.
Meanwhile, it also clears the memory of struct map_benchmark in tools,
otherwise, if users use old version to run on newer kernel, the random
expansion value will cause side effect on newer kernel.

Nowadays, there are increasing requirements to benchmark the performance
of dma_map and dma_unmap particually while the device is attached to an
IOMMU.
This patch enables the support. Users can run specified number of threads
to do dma_map_page and dma_unmap_page on a specific NUMA node with the
specified duration. Then dma_map_benchmark will calculate the average
latency for map and unmap.
A difficulity for this benchmark is that dma_map/unmap APIs must run on
a particular device. Each device might have different backend of IOMMU or
non-IOMMU.
So we use the driver_override to bind dma_map_benchmark to a particual
device by:
For platform devices:
echo dma_map_benchmark > /sys/bus/platform/devices/xxx/driver_override
echo xxx > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/xxx/unbind
echo xxx > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/dma_map_benchmark/bind
For PCI devices:
echo dma_map_benchmark > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:01.0/driver_override
echo 0000:00:01.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/xxx/unbind
echo 0000:00:01.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/dma_map_benchmark/bind
