                We used to detect assigned device via VFIO manipulated device
                conters. This is less flexible consider VFIO is not the only
                interface for assigned device. vDPA devices has dedicated
                backed hardware as well. So this patch tries to detect
                the assigned device via irqbypass manager.

                We will increase/decrease the assigned device counter in kvm/x86.
                Both vDPA and VFIO would go through this code path.

                This code path only affect x86 for now.

            I think it's best to leave VFIO alone. Add appropriate APIs for VDPA,
            worry about converting existing users later.



        Just to make sure I understand, did you mean:

        1) introduce another bridge for vDPA

        or

        2) only detect vDPA via bypass manager? (we can leave VFIO code as is, then
        the assigned device counter may increase/decrease twice if VFIO use irq
        bypass manager which should be no harm).

        Thanks

    2 is probably easier to justify. 1 would depend on the specific bridge
    proposed.

Thanks Michael, so we should just drop changes in vfio, just increase / decrease
the counter in irq bypass manager. right?

Thanks
I don't see any issue with that.
