Add support for error containment when a VFIO device assigned to a KVM
guest encounters an error. This is for PCIe devices/drivers that support AER
functionality. When the host OS is notified of an error in a device either
through the firmware first approach or through an interrupt handled by the AER
root port driver, the error handler registered by the vfio-pci driver gets
invoked. The qemu process is signaled through an eventfd registered per
VFIO device by the qemu process. In the eventfd handler, qemu decides on
what action to take. In this implementation, guest is brought down to
contain the error.
The kernel patches for the above functionality has been already accepted.
This is a refresh of the QEMU patch which was reviewed earlier.

This patch has the same contents and has been built after refreshing
to latest upstream and after the linux headers have been updated in qemu.
- Create eventfd per vfio device assigned to a guest and register an
event handler
- This fd is passed to the vfio_pci driver through the SET_IRQ ioctl
- When the device encounters an error, the eventfd is signalled
and the qemu eventfd handler gets invoked.
- In the handler decide what action to take. Current action taken
is to stop the guest.

Turns out all the suspicions for AMD devices were correct, everywhere
we read a BAR address that the address matches the config space offset,
there's full access to PCI config space. Attempt to generalize some
helpers to allow quirks to easily be added for mirrors and windows.
Also fill in complete config space for AMD.

Add ref/unref calls at the following places:
- places where memory regions are stashed by a listener and
used outside the BQL (including in Xen or KVM).
- memory_region_find callsites
- creation of aliases and containers (only the aliased/contained
region gets a reference to avoid loops)
- around calls to del_subregion/add_subregion, where the region
could disappear after the first call

vfio doesn't support guest iommus yet, indicate it to the user
by gently depositing a core on their disk.

So far, the size of all regions passed to listeners could fit in 64 bits,
because artificial regions (containers and aliases) are eliminated by
the memory core, leaving only device regions which have reasonable sizes
An IOMMU however cannot be eliminated by the memory core, and may have
an artificial size, hence we may need 65 bits to represent its size.
