bf6a6019b2 Doc: Clarify the IOMMU configuration for User Space Drivers
In the case system charges PCI devices with the "uio_pci_generic"
kernel driver, the IOMMU should be disabled or passthrough, because
the virtual / physical address conversion by IOMMU will make the DMA
transmission invalid.

The patch guides users configure IOMMU in SPDK target system on both
x86_64 and arm64 systems.
