Add support for using VFIO for dpaa2 based fsl-mc bus.
Why do we need so much special code for interfacing VFIO on fsl-mc?
Can you reuse some code from EAL VFIO?
fsl-mc VFIO scans the objects. So, it is slightly different.
Even though I have tried to minimize changes and re-use the code from
EAL VFIO. It is still refactoring work, which we will take up little later.
Do you mean you could re-use some EAL code but do not want to do it now?
It sounds like something heard too many times earlier (from others).
The experience tells we must not wait to do things right.
I meant that I was able to use some of the EAL VFIO functions. There are
some changes which I am planning to propose in eal vfio and in our driver.
I will do it in subsequent patchsets of current series shortly.
