There is a case in which cap_perms and ecap_perms can be reallocated
by different modules. e.g. the vfio-mdev-pci sample driver. To secure
the initialization of cap_perms and ecap_perms, this patch adds an
atomic variable to track the user of cap/ecap_perms bits. First caller
of vfio_pci_init_perm_bits() will initialize the bits. While the last
caller of vfio_pci_uninit_perm_bits() will free the bits.
