vfio: Permit VFIO to work with pinned importers
Till now VFIO has rejected pinned importers, largely to avoid being used with the RDMA pinned importer that cannot handle a move_notify() to revoke access. Using dma_buf_attach_revocable() it can tell the difference between pinned importers that support the flow described in dma_buf_invalidate_mappings() and those that don't. Thus permit compatible pinned importers. This is one of two items IOMMUFD requires to remove its private interface to VFIO's dma-buf. Reviewed-by:Kevin Tian <kevin.tian@intel.com> Reviewed-by:
