When a device is opened by a userspace driver, via VFIO interface, DMA

data for userview of TCE table.

When the userspace driver closes the device, all the above infrastructure
is free'ed and the device control given back to kernel. Both DMA window
and TCE table is getting free'ed. But due to a code bug, userview of the
TCE table is not getting free'ed. This is resulting in a memory leak.
