The patch adds new IOCTL commands for sPAPR VFIO container device
to support EEH functionality for PCI devices, which have been passed
through from host to somebody else via VFIO.

EEH Support for VFIO PCI Device
The series of patches adds support EEH for PCI devices, which are passed
through to PowerKVM based guest via VFIO. The implementation is straightforward
based on the issues or problems we have to resolve to support EEH for PowerKVM
based guest.
- Emulation for EEH
We must not handle EEH error on devices which are passed to somebody
else. Instead, we expect that the frozen device owner detects an EEH
error and recovers from it.
This avoids EEH error handling on passed through devices so the device
owner gets a chance to handle them.
