The original architecture of /sys/bus/dsa invented a scheme whereby a
single entry in the list of bus drivers, /sys/bus/drivers/dsa, handled
all device types and internally routed them to different drivers.
Those internal drivers were invisible to userspace. Now, as
/sys/bus/dsa wants to grow support for alternate drivers for a given
device, for example vfio-mdev instead of kernel-internal-dmaengine, a
proper bus device-driver model is needed. The first step in that process
is separating the existing omnibus/implicit "dsa" driver into proper
individual drivers registered on /sys/bus/dsa. Establish the
idxd_user_drv driver that controls the enabling and disabling of the
wq and also register and unregister a char device to allow user space
to mmap the descriptor submission portal.

The cdev related bits are moved to the cdev driver probe/remove and out of
the drv_enabe/disable_wq() calls. These bits are exclusive to the cdev
operation and not part of the g...
