vfio: Allocate per device file structure
This is preparation for adding vfio device cdev support. vfio device cdev requires: 1) A per device file memory to store the kvm pointer set by KVM. It will be propagated to vfio_device:kvm after the device cdev file is bound to an iommufd. 2) A mechanism to block device access through device cdev fd before it is bound to an iommufd. To address the above requirements, this adds a per device file structure named vfio_device_file. For now, it's only a wrapper of struct vfio_device pointer. Other fields will be added to this per file structure in future commits. Reviewed-by:Kevin Tian <kevin.tian@intel.com> Reviewed-by:
