[PATCH 1/7] KVM: api: add kvm_irq_routing_extended_msi

[Eric Auger]

On ARM, the MSI msg (address and data) comes along with
out-of-band device ID information. The device ID encodes the device
that composes the MSI msg. Let's create a new routing entry type,
dubbed KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_EXTENDED_MSI and use the __u32 pad space
to convey the device ID.
