[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v3 12/15] vfio: Make vfio_device_open() single open for device cdev path

[Yi Liu <yi.l.liu@intel.com>]

With the introduction of vfio device cdev, userspace can get device
access by either the legacy group path or the cdev path. For VFIO devices,
it can only be opened by one of the group path and the cdev path at one
time. e.g. when the device is opened via cdev path, the group path should
be failed. Both paths will call into vfio_device_open(), so the exclusion
is done in it.

VFIO group has historically allowed multi-open of the device FD. This
was made secure because the "open" was executed via an ioctl to the
group FD which is itself only single open.

However, no known use of multiple device FDs today. It is kind of a
strange thing to do because new device FDs can naturally be created
via dup().

When we implement the new device uAPI (only used in cdev path) there is
no natural way to allow the device itself from being multi-opened in a
secure manner. Without the group FD we cannot prove the security context
of the opener.

Thus, when moving to the new uAPI we block the ability to multi-open
the device. Old group path still allows it.

vfio_device_open() needs to sustain both the legacy behavior i.e. multi-open
in the group path and the new behavior i.e. single-open in the cdev path.
This mixture leads to the introduction of a new is_cdev_device flag in struct
vfio_device_file.
