vfio/pci: Add dma-buf export support for MMIO regions
Add support for exporting PCI device MMIO regions through dma-buf,
enabling safe sharing of non-struct page memory with controlled
lifetime management. This allows RDMA and other subsystems to import
dma-buf FDs and build them into memory regions for PCI P2P operations.
The implementation provides a revocable attachment mechanism using
dma-buf move operations. MMIO regions are normally pinned as BARs
don't change physical addresses, but access is revoked when the VFIO
device is closed or a PCI reset is issued. This ensures kernel
self-defense against potentially hostile userspace.
