Jason Gunthorpe 21c13829bc vfio: Remove vfio_group dev_counter
This counts the number of devices attached to a vfio_group, ie the number
of items in the group->device_list.

It is only read in vfio_pin_pages(), as some kind of protection against
limitations in type1.

However, with all the code cleanups in this area, now that
vfio_pin_pages() accepts a vfio_device directly it is redundant.  All
drivers are already calling vfio_register_emulated_iommu_dev() which
directly creates a group specifically for the device and thus it is
guaranteed that there is a singleton group.

Leave a note in the comment about this requirement and remove the logic.

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.
