[PATCH v2 00/14] Add vfio_device cdev for iommufd support

[Yi Liu <yi.l.liu@intel.com>]

Existing VFIO provides group-centric user APIs for userspace. Userspace
opens the /dev/vfio/$group_id first before getting device fd and hence
getting access to device. This is not the desired model for iommufd. Per
the conclusion of community discussion[1], iommufd provides device-centric
kAPIs and requires its consumer (like VFIO) to be device-centric user
APIs. Such user APIs are used to associate device with iommufd and also
the I/O address spaces managed by the iommufd.

This series first introduces a per device file structure to be prepared
for further enhancement and refactors the kvm-vfio code to be prepared
for accepting device file from userspace. Then refactors the vfio to be
able to handle iommufd binding. This refactor includes the mechanism of
blocking device access before iommufd bind, making vfio_device_open() be
exclusive between the group path and the cdev path. Eventually, adds the
cdev support for vfio device, and makes group infrastructure optional as
it is not needed when vfio device cdev is compiled.

This is also a base for further support iommu nesting for vfio device[2].

The complete code can be found in below branch, simple test done with the
legacy group path and the cdev path. Draft QEMU branch can be found at[3]

    plus two commits to align with vfio_device_cdev v2)

Change log:

v2:
 - Add r-b from Kevin and Eric on patch 01 02 04.
 - "Split kvm/vfio: Provide struct kvm_device_ops::release() insted of ::destroy()"
   from this series and got applied. (Alex, Kevin, Jason, Mathhew)
 - Add kvm_ref_lock to protect vfio_device_file->kvm instead of reusing
   dev_set->lock as dead-lock is observed with vfio-ap which would try to
   acquire kvm_lock. This is opposite lock order with kvm_device_release()
   which holds kvm_lock first and then hold dev_set->lock. (Kevin)
 - Use a separate ioctl for detaching IOAS. (Alex)
 - Rename vfio_device_file::single_open to be is_cdev_device (Kevin, Alex)
 - Move the vfio device cdev code into device_cdev.c and add a VFIO_DEVICE_CDEV
   kconfig for it. (Kevin, Jason)

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20230117134942.101112-1-yi.l.liu@intel.com/
 - Fix the circular refcount between kvm struct and device file reference. (JasonG)
 - Address comments from KevinT
 - Remained the ioctl for detach, needs to Alex's taste
