91b9969d9c vfio/mdev: Simplify driver registration 
This is only done once, we don't need to generate code to initialize a
structure stored in the ELF .data segment. Fill in the three required
.driver members directly instead of copying data into them during
mdev_register_driver().

Further the to_mdev_driver() function doesn't belong in a public header,
just inline it into the two places that need it. Finally, we can now
clearly see that 'drv' derived from dev->driver cannot be NULL, firstly
because the driver core forbids it, and secondly because NULL won't pass
through the container_of(). Remove the dead code.

2a3d15f270 vfio/mdev: Add missing typesafety around mdev_device 
The mdev API should accept and pass a 'struct mdev_device *' in all
places, not pass a 'struct device *' and cast it internally with
to_mdev_device(). Particularly in its struct mdev_driver functions, the
whole point of a bus's struct device_driver wrapper is to provide type
safety compared to the default struct device_driver.

Further, the driver core standard is for bus drivers to expose their
device structure in their public headers that can be used with
container_of() inlines and '&foo->dev' to go between the class levels, and
'&foo->dev' to be used with dev_err/etc driver core helper functions. Move
'struct mdev_device' to mdev.h

Once done this allows moving some one instruction exported functions to
static inlines, which in turns allows removing one of the two grotesque
symbol_get()'s related to mdev in the core code.

7b96953bc6 vfio: Mediated device Core driver 
Design for Mediated Device Driver:
Main purpose of this driver is to provide a common interface for mediated
device management that can be used by different drivers of different
devices.

This module provides a generic interface to create the device, add it to
mediated bus, add device to IOMMU group and then add it to vfio group.

Below is the high Level block diagram, with Nvidia, Intel and IBM devices
as example, since these are the devices which are going to actively use
this module as of now.

Core driver provides two types of registration interfaces:
1. Registration interface for mediated bus driver:

/**
  * struct mdev_driver - Mediated device's driver
  * @name: driver name
  * @probe: called when new device created
  * @remove:called when device removed
  * @driver:device driver structure
  *
  **/
struct mdev_driver {
         const char *name;
         int  (*probe)  (struct device *dev);
         void (*remove) (struct device *dev);
         struct device_driver    driver;
};

Mediated bus driver for mdev device should use this interface to register
and unregister with core driver respectively:

int  mdev_register_driver(struct mdev_driver *drv, struct module *owner);
void mdev_unregister_driver(struct mdev_driver *drv);

Mediated bus driver is responsible to add/delete mediated devices to/from
VFIO group when devices are bound and unbound to the driver.

2. Physical device driver interface
This interface provides vendor driver the set APIs to manage physical
device related work in its driver. APIs are :

* dev_attr_groups: attributes of the parent device.
* mdev_attr_groups: attributes of the mediated device.
* supported_type_groups: attributes to define supported type. This is
			 mandatory field.
* create: to allocate basic resources in vendor driver for a mediated
         device. This is mandatory to be provided by vendor driver.
* remove: to free resources in vendor driver when mediated device is
         destroyed. This is mandatory to be provided by vendor driver.
* open: open callback of mediated device
* release: release callback of mediated device
* read : read emulation callback.
* write: write emulation callback.
* ioctl: ioctl callback.
* mmap: mmap emulation callback.

Drivers should use these interfaces to register and unregister device to
mdev core driver respectively:

extern int  mdev_register_device(struct device *dev,
                                 const struct parent_ops *ops);
extern void mdev_unregister_device(struct device *dev);

There are no locks to serialize above callbacks in mdev driver and
vfio_mdev driver. If required, vendor driver can have locks to serialize
above APIs in their driver.
