[PATCH 0/8] rust: pci: add abstractions for SR-IOV capability

Add Rust abstractions for the Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV)
capability of a PCI device. Provide a minimal set of wrappers for the
SR-IOV C API to enable and disable SR-IOV for a device, and query if
a PCI device is a Physical Function (PF) or Virtual Function (VF).

Using the #[vtable] attribute, extend the pci::Driver trait with an
optional bus callback sriov_configure() that is invoked when a
user-space application writes the number of VFs to the sysfs file
`sriov_numvfs` to enable SR-IOV, or zero to disable SR-IOV [1].

Add a method physfn() to return the Physical Function (PF) device for a
Virtual Function (VF) device in the bound device context. Unlike for a
PCI driver written in C, guarantee that when a VF device is bound to a
driver, the underlying PF device is bound to a driver, too.

When a device with enabled VFs is unbound from a driver, invoke the
sriov_configure() callback to disable SR-IOV before the unbind()
callback. To ensure the guarantee is upheld, call disable_sriov()
to remove all VF devices if the driver has not done so already.

This series is based on Danilo Krummrich's series "Device::drvdata() and
driver/driver interaction (auxiliary)" applied to driver-core-next,
which similarly guarantees that when an auxiliary bus device is bound to
a driver, the underlying parent device is bound to a driver, too [2].

Add an SR-IOV driver sample that exercises the SR-IOV capability using
QEMU's 82576 (igb) emulation and was used to test the abstractions [3].
