Subject: [PATCH v2 2/6] vfio: platform: reset: add vfio_platform_reset_private.h

This header is to be included in all vfio reset modules. It
defines the module_vfio_reset_handler macro whose role is
- to define a module alias
- implement module init/exit function which respectively registers
  and unregisters the reset function.

Signed-off-by: Eric Auger <eric.auger@...aro.org>

v2: creation
- this defines the module_vfio_reset_handler macro as suggested by Arnd

Although Arnd suggested me to remove the vfio_platform_register_reset
symbol_get (since the module manager can handle the case where the
vfio-platform driver is not loaded), I prefered to keep it while
introducing the macro. The rationale is, when using symbol_get/put
we are able to release the hold from the reset module on vfio-platform
as soon as the registration is complete and I think this makes sense.
