Apologies. This series was fit to 5.18 as the merge window progressed.
Both this patch and the previous one have to adjust to the removal of
mdev_parent_ops that came about from

commit 6b42f491e17ce13f5ff7f2d1f49c73a0f4c47b20
Author: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@ziepe.ca>

vfio/mdev: Remove mdev_parent_ops

I have this rebased for v2.
