Public bug reported:

Description:   vfio/pci: fix 8-byte PCI loads and stores

Symptom:       
Reading from or writing to 64 bit registers (I/O ports or MMIO) on a PCI 
adapter attached via vfio with e.g. the pread()/pwrite() system calls may not 
work in case the PCI adapter requires a full read or write that can not be 
broken up.

Problem:       
64 bit reads/writes are not implemented via the vfio I/O port or MMIO access, 
even if the architecture supports 64 bit I/O reads and writes.

Solution:      
Implement the use of 64 bit I/O reads and writes in the vfio driver, so that 
such reads and writes are not broken up into multiple smaller operations if the 
architecture supports such bigger operations.
