Please do iommu_init() iommu_cleanup() here to reduce code duplication
and as an added bonus you can drop the clang-format comments above.

Is this because the child processes created by test_harness_run() to run
the TEST_F()s inherit the atexit() call? If so please clarify that in
the comment in more detail.

Do we actually need atexit()? This code can go into main and we can do
the VF cleanup before returning from main after test_harness_run()
returns. I don't think you even need to check the VF driver. If the VF
is not bound to vfio-pci then that will be caught by the test cases when
they call device_init(vf_bdf, ...).

That would make the logic more straightforward and get rid of the
main_pid stuff too.
