vfoi-pci supports a mechanism like KVM's irqfd for unmasking an
interrupt through an eventfd. There are two ways to shutdown this
interface: 1) close the eventfd, 2) ioctl (such as disabling the
interrupt). Both of these do the release through a workqueue,
which can result in a segfault if two jobs get queued for the same
virqfd.
Fix this by protecting the pointer to these virqfds by a spinlock.
The vfio pci device will therefore no longer have a reference to it
once the release job is queued under lock. On the ioctl side, we
still flush the workqueue to ensure that any outstanding releases
are completed.

Add PCI device support for VFIO. PCI devices expose regions
for accessing config space, I/O port space, and MMIO areas
of the device. PCI config access is virtualized in the kernel,
allowing us to ensure the integrity of the system, by preventing
various accesses while reducing duplicate support across various
userspace drivers. I/O port supports read/write access while
MMIO also supports mmap of sufficiently sized regions. Support
for INTx, MSI, and MSI-X interrupts are provided using eventfds to
userspace.
