Subject: [RFC v4 1/3] vfio: support getting vfio device from device fd

From: Tiwei Bie <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 17 Sep 2019 09:02:02 +0800

This patch introduces the support for getting VFIO device
from VFIO device fd. With this support, it's possible for
vhost to get VFIO device from the group fd and device fd
set by the userspace.
