Zhu Lingshan 2edd9cb79f kvm: detect assigned device via irqbypass manager
vDPA devices has dedicated backed hardware like
passthrough-ed devices. Then it is possible to setup irq
offloading to vCPU for vDPA devices. Thus this patch tries to
manipulated assigned device counters by
kvm_arch_start/end_assignment() in irqbypass manager, so that
assigned devices could be detected in update_pi_irte()

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

Only X86 uses these counters and kvm_arch_start/end_assignment(),
so this code path only affect x86 for now.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
