vfio_pci_probe() is quite complicated, with optional VF and VGA sub
components. Move these into clear init/uninit functions and have a linear
flow in probe/remove.
This fixes a few little buglets:
- vfio_pci_remove() is in the wrong order, vga_client_register() removes
a notifier and is after kfree(vdev), but the notifier refers to vdev,
so it can use after free in a race.
- vga_client_register() can fail but was ignored
Organize things so destruction order is the reverse of creation order.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
