This is to include changes from rust-vmm#106 regarding redefined new public APIs to support the new VFIO cdev mode. The kernel plans to depcreate the older "legacy mode" (using containers and groups) that the existing public APIs target. To facilitate migration, the new APIs supports boths modes. Users of the vfio-ioctls crate are encouraged to adopt the new APIs first, before the legacy VFIO mode is deprecated in the future. Signed-off-by: Bo Chen <[email protected]>
