[PATCH v2 00/13] vfio_pci: wrap pci device as a mediated device

[Liu Yi L]

This patchset aims to add a vfio-pci-like meta driver as a demo
user of the vfio changes introduced in "vfio/mdev: IOMMU aware
mediated device" patchset from Baolu Lu. Besides the test purpose,
per Alex's comments, it could also be a good base driver for
experimenting with device specific mdev migration.

Specific interface tested in this proposal:
 *) int mdev_set_iommu_device(struct device *dev,
 				struct device *iommu_device)
    introduced in the patch as below:
    "[PATCH v5 6/8] vfio/mdev: Add iommu related member in mdev_device"

Patch Overview:
 *) patch 1 ~ 7: code refactor for existing vfio-pci module
                 move the common codes from vfio_pci.c to
                 vfio_pci_common.c
 *) patch 8: add protection to perm_bits alloc/free
 *) patch 9: add vfio-mdev-pci sample driver
 *) patch 10: refine the sample driver
 *) patch 11 - 13: make the sample driver work for non-singleton groups
                   also work for vfio-pci and vfio-mdev-pci mixed usage
                   includes vfio-mdev-pci driver change and vfio_iommu_type1
                   changes.

Test done on two NICs which share an iommu group.

     e6bfe0fa1003: failed to setup container for group 11: Failed to set iommu
     for container: Device or resource busy
Some other tests are not listed. Like bind NIC0 to vfio-pci-mdev and try to
passthru it with "vfio-pci,host=01:00.0", kernel will throw a warn log and
fail the operation.

Please feel free give your comments.

Change log:
  patch v1 -> patch v2:
  - the sample driver implementation refined
  - the sample driver can work on non-singleton iommu groups
  - the sample driver can work with vfio-pci, devices from a non-singleton
    group can either be bound to vfio-mdev-pci or vfio-pci, and the
    assignment of this group still follows current vfio assignment rule.

  RFC v3 -> patch v1:
  - split the patchset from 3 patches to 9 patches to better demonstrate
    the changes step by step

  v2->v3:
  - use vfio-mdev-pci instead of vfio-pci-mdev
  - place the new driver under drivers/vfio/pci while define
    Kconfig in samples/Kconfig to clarify it is a sample driver

  v1->v2:
  - instead of adding kernel option to existing vfio-pci
    module in v1, v2 follows Alex's suggestion to add a
    separate vfio-pci-mdev module.
  - new patchset subject: "vfio/pci: wrap pci device as a mediated device"
