Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1667249

On an AMD SEV enabled host with an SEV enabled guest, attaching an
assigned device to the VM results in a failure to start the VM:

qemu-kvm: -device vfio-pci,host=01:00.0,id=hostdev0,bus=pci.2,addr=0x0: sev_ram_block_added: failed to register region (0x7fd96e6bb000+0x20000) error 'Cannot allocate memory'

In this example the assigned device is a simple Intel 82574L NIC:

01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82574L Gigabit Network Connection
	Subsystem: Intel Corporation Gigabit CT Desktop Adapter
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 89, NUMA node 0
	Memory at fb9c0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K]
	Memory at fb900000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512K]

Note that the error indicates the region as (base+size) where a size
of 0x20000 is 128K, which matches that of BAR0 for the device.
dmesg on the host also reports:

SVM: SEV: Failure locking 32 pages.

SEV guests make use of the RAMBlock notifier in QEMU to add page
pinnings for SEV; the kernel side of the call only knows how to pin
pages with get_user_pages(), and this currently faults on non-page
backed mappings (e.g. the mmap of an MMIO BAR).

To resolve this failure, change the order of the memory region type
assignment and avoid pinning device memory regions.
