[PATCH 3/3] vfio/type1: batch page pinning

[Daniel Jordan <daniel.m.jordan@oracle.com>]

Pinning one 4K page at a time is inefficient, so do it in batches of 512
instead.  This is just an optimization with no functional change
intended, and in particular the driver still calls iommu_map() with the
largest physically contiguous range possible.

Add two fields in vfio_batch to remember where to start between calls to
vfio_pin_pages_remote(), and use vfio_batch_unpin() to handle remaining
pages in the batch in case of error.

qemu pins pages for guests around 8% faster on my test system, a
two-node Broadwell server with 128G memory per node.  The qemu process
was bound to one node with its allocations constrained there as well.
