<title>vfio/mdev: add mdev available instance checking to the core</title>

Many of the mdev drivers use a simple counter for keeping track of the
available instances. Move this code to the core code and store the counter
in the mdev_parent. Implement it using correct locking, fixing mdpy.

Drivers just provide the value in the mdev_driver at registration time
and the core code takes care of maintaining it and exposing the value in
sysfs.

[hch: count instances per-parent instead of per-type, use an atomic_t
 to avoid taking mdev_list_lock in the show method]

Instead of abusing struct attribute_group to control initialization of
struct mdev_type, just define the actual attributes in the mdev_driver,
allocate the mdev_type structures in the caller and pass them to
mdev_register_parent.

This allows the caller to use container_of to get at the containing
structure and thus significantly simplify the code.

Simplify mdev_{un}register_device by requiring the caller to pass in
a structure allocate as part of the parent device structure.  This
removes the need for a list of parents and the separate mdev_parent
refcount as we can simplify rely on the reference to the parent device.

The device creator is supposed to use the dev.groups value to add sysfs
files before device_add is called, not call sysfs_create_files() after
device_add() returns. This creates a race with uevent delivery where the
extra attribute will not be visible.

This was being done because the groups had been co-opted by the mdev
driver, now that prior patches have moved the driver's groups to the
struct device_driver the dev.group is properly free for use here.
