Hello,

The VFIO object hierarchy has some constraints because each VFIO type
has a dual nature: a VFIO nature for passthrough support and a bus
nature (PCI, AP, CCW, Platform) for its initial presentation. It
seemed the best approach made because multi-inheritance is not
feasible with QOM and both aspect of the VFIO object, passthrough and
bus, require state. A QOM interface in that case is not sufficient.

One aspect of passthrough is interaction with the IOMMU. IOMMUFD
support was recently added and for this purpose, we introduced an
IOMMU backend framework simply based on a VFIOIOMMUOps struct. We
didn't want to use QOM again because it would have exposed the various
lowlevel backend objects to the QEMU machine and human interface which
felt unnecessary at the time.

The changes of this series introduce a VFIO_IOMMU QOM interface and
its VFIOIOMMUClass to replace the current VFIOIOMMUOps. This provides
better code abstraction for the type1 and sPAPR IOMMU backends and
allows us to improve the vfio_connect_container() implementation.
Also, QOM interfaces are not exposed at the QEMU interface level. Most
important, we can now avoid compiling the sPAPR IOMMU support on
targets not needing it. This saves some text in QEMU.

Applies on vfio-next.

Thanks,

C.
