[PATCH 37/37] vfio: Add support for Shared Virtual Addressing

[Yisheng Xie]

Hi Jean,

vfio can be compiled as module, however you use some functions which are not
exported.

comment inline:

[...]
> Add two new ioctl for VFIO containers. VFIO_IOMMU_BIND_PROCESS creates a

Maybe can use?
	task = pid_task(find_vpid(params.vpid), PIDTYPE_PID)

You will try to export mm_access, I find Felix have tried to, but seems give up:
