[PATCH v5] vfio error recovery: kernel support

0. What happens now (PCIE AER only)
Fatal errors cause a link reset. Non fatal errors don't.
All errors stop the QEMU guest eventually, but not immediately,
because it's detected and reported asynchronously.
Interrupts are forwarded as usual.
Correctable errors are not reported to user at all.

Note:
PPC EEH is different, but this approach won' affect EEH, because
EEH treat all errors as fatal ones in AER, will still signal user
via the legacy eventfd. And all devices/functions in a PE belongs to
the same IOMMU group, so the slot_reset handler in this approach
won't affect EEH either.

1. Correctable errors
Hardware can correct these errors without software intervention,
clear the error status is enough, this is what already done now.
No need to recover it, nothing changed, leave it as it is.

2. Fatal errors
They will induce a link reset. This is troublesome when user is
a QEMU guest. This approach doens't touch the existing mechanism.

3. Non-fatal errors
Before, they are signalled to user the same as fatal ones. In this approach,
a new eventfd is introduced only for non-fatal error notification. By
splitting non-fatal ones out, it will benefit AER recovery of a QEMU guest
user by reporting them to guest saparately.

To maintain backwards compatibility with userspace, non-fatal errors
will continue to trigger via the existing error interrupt index if a
non-fatal signaling mechanism has not been registered.

Note:
In case of a multi-function device which has different device driver
for each of them, and one of the functions is bound to vfio while
others doesn't(i.e., functions belong to different IOMMU group), a new
slot_reset handler & another new eventfd are introduced. This is
useful when device driver wants a slot reset while vfio-pci doesn't,
which means vfio-pci device will got a passive reset. Signal user
via another new eventfd names passive_reset_trigger, this helps to
avoid signalling user twice via the same legacy error trigger.

v5 changelog:
1. Add another new eventfd passive_reset_trigger & the boilerplate code,
used in slot_reset. Add comment for slot_reset().
2. Rewrite the commit log.
