iommu/vt-d: PRS isn't usable if PDS isn't supported

The specification, Section 7.10, "Software Steps to Drain Page Requests &
Responses," requires software to submit an Invalidation Wait Descriptor
(inv_wait_dsc) with the Page-request Drain (PD=1) flag set, along with
the Invalidation Wait Completion Status Write flag (SW=1). It then waits
for the Invalidation Wait Descriptor's completion.

However, the PD field in the Invalidation Wait Descriptor is optional, as
stated in Section 6.5.2.9, "Invalidation Wait Descriptor":

"Page-request Drain (PD): Remapping hardware implementations reporting
 Page-request draining as not supported (PDS = 0 in ECAP_REG) treat this
 field as reserved."

This implies that if the IOMMU doesn't support the PDS capability, software
can't drain page requests and group responses as expected.

Do not enable PCI/PRI if the IOMMU doesn't support PDS.
