[RFC 5/9] VFIO: Extend external user API

From: Eric Auger
Date: Mon Aug 25 2014 - 09:30:11 EST


New functions are added to be called from ARM KVM-VFIO device.

- vfio_device_get_external_user enables to get a vfio device from
its fd
- vfio_device_put_external_user puts the vfio device
- vfio_external_get_type enables to retrieve the type of the device
(PCI or platform)
- vfio_external_get_base_device enables to get the
struct device*, useful to access the platform_device
