Alex Williamson fa1607f943 vfio/pci: Separate SR-IOV VF dev_set 
[ Upstream commit e908f58b6b ]

In the below noted Fixes commit we introduced a reflck mutex to allow
better scaling between devices for open and close.  The reflck was
based on the hot reset granularity, device level for root bus devices
which cannot support hot reset or bus/slot reset otherwise.  Overlooked
in this were SR-IOV VFs, where there's also no bus reset option, but
the default for a non-root-bus, non-slot-based device is bus level
reflck granularity.

The reflck mutex has since become the dev_set mutex (via commit
2cd8b14aaa ("vfio/pci: Move to the device set infrastructure")) and
is our defacto serialization for various operations and ioctls.  It
still seems to be the case though that sets of vfio-pci devices really
only need serialization relative to hot resets affecting the entire
set, which is not relevant to SR-IOV VFs.  As described in the Closes
link below, this serialization contributes to startup latency when
multiple VFs sharing the same "bus" are opened concurrently.

Mark the device itself as the basis of the dev_set for SR-IOV VFs.

README 

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 reStructuredText 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.
