vfio-pci: Allow to mmap sub-page MMIO BARs if the mmio page is exclusive

Current vfio-pci implementation disallows to mmap
sub-page(size < PAGE_SIZE) MMIO BARs because these BARs' mmio
page may be shared with other BARs. This will cause some
performance issues when we passthrough a PCI device with
this kind of BARs. Guest will be not able to handle the mmio
accesses to the BARs which leads to mmio emulations in host.

However, not all sub-page BARs will share page with other BARs.
We should allow to mmap those sub-page MMIO BARs which we can
make sure will not share page with other BARs.

This patch adds support for this case. And we also try to use 
shadow resource to reserve the remaind of the page which hot-add 
device's BAR might be assigned into.

'shadow' usually means you have a corresponding part being
shadowed, while here looks you mostly want some 'dummy'
resource for reservation purpose?

What about res->start not page aligned so you end up still having 
a portion before res->start not exclusively reserved?

Yes., 'dummy' may be better here. And I would also replace
shadow_res/shadow_resources_list with reserved_res/reserved_resources_list.

Do you mean add a 'dummy' resource to reserve the portion
before res->start if res->start not page aligned?

But would it happen that there is a mem hole in the portion
before res->start? The resource should have been assigned
into the hole at the beginning.

Thanks,
Yongji

Just a quick thought. Another device might occupy that range 
before initializing this device, and then 'another device' is hot
removed later... 

Thanks

That's a good point! I will add support for this case in v2.

Thanks,
