[RFC PATCH 4/9] vfio-pci: register default dynamic-trap-bar-info region

[Yan Zhao]

Dynamic trap bar info region is a channel for QEMU and vendor driver to
communicate dynamic trap info. It is of type
VFIO_REGION_TYPE_DYNAMIC_TRAP_BAR_INFO and subtype
VFIO_REGION_SUBTYPE_DYNAMIC_TRAP_BAR_INFO.

This region has two fields: dt_fd and trap.
When QEMU detects a device regions of this type, it will create an
eventfd and write its eventfd id to dt_fd field.
When vendor drivre signals this eventfd, QEMU reads trap field of this
info region.
- If trap is true, QEMU would search the device's PCI BAR
regions and disable all the sparse mmaped subregions (if the sparse
mmaped subregion is disablable).
- If trap is false, QEMU would re-enable those subregions.

A typical usage is
1. vendor driver first cuts its bar 0 into several sections, all in a
sparse mmap array. So initally, all its bar 0 are passthroughed.
2. vendor driver specifys part of bar 0 sections to be disablable.
3. on migration starts, vendor driver signals dt_fd and set trap to true
to notify QEMU disabling the bar 0 sections of disablable flags on.
4. QEMU disables those bar 0 section and hence let vendor driver be able
to trap access of bar 0 registers and make dirty page tracking possible.
5. on migration failure, vendor driver signals dt_fd to QEMU again.
QEMU reads trap field of this info region which is false and QEMU
re-passthrough the whole bar 0 region.

Vendor driver specifies whether it supports dynamic-trap-bar-info region
through cap VFIO_PCI_DEVICE_CAP_DYNAMIC_TRAP_BAR in
vfio_pci_mediate_ops->open().

If vfio-pci detects this cap, it will create a default
dynamic_trap_bar_info region on behalf of vendor driver with region len=0
and region->ops=null.
Vvendor driver should override this region's len, flags, rw, mmap in its
vfio_pci_mediate_ops.
