I had that thought as well. However, this operates on the
IOMMUFDBackend fd and is not tegra specific. It performs
an mmap on the backend fd associated with a vIOMMU instance,
which could potentially be reused by others.
Keeping it in backends/iommufd.c also centralizes fd related
operations (including tracing) for the IOMMUFD backend.
