Capital letter when beginning a new sentence.  Also the reference to
'the extended VFIO API' feels a bit weird.  Can't you make your commit
message a little more descriptive of this patch, something along the
lines of:

external handle on a struct vfio_device based on a vfio device file
descriptor.  We provide this through three new functions:

(assuming I got this right).
