vfio: Accept vfio device file in the KVM facing kAPI

Browse source

This makes the vfio file kAPIs to accept vfio device files, also a
preparation for vfio device cdev support.

For the kvm set with vfio device file, kvm pointer is stored in struct
vfio_device_file, and use kvm_ref_lock to protect kvm set and kvm
pointer usage within VFIO. This kvm pointer will be set to vfio_device
after device file is bound to iommufd in the cdev path.
