Cédric Le Goater 19368b1905 backends/iommufd: Remove mutex
Coverity reports a concurrent data access violation because be->users
is being accessed in iommufd_backend_can_be_deleted() without holding
the mutex.

However, these routines are called from the QEMU main thread when a
device is created. In this case, the code paths should be protected by
the BQL lock and it should be safe to drop the IOMMUFD backend mutex.
Simply remove it.

Eric Auger 6e6d8ac62b backends/iommufd: Introduce the iommufd object
Introduce an iommufd object which allows the interaction
with the host /dev/iommu device.

The /dev/iommu can have been already pre-opened outside of qemu,
in which case the fd can be passed directly along with the
iommufd object:

This allows the iommufd object to be shared accross several
subsystems (VFIO, VDPA, ...). For example, libvirt would open
the /dev/iommu once.

If no fd is passed along with the iommufd object, the /dev/iommu
is opened by the qemu code.
