Subject: [PATCH v3 3/7] vfio: avoid inefficient lookup of VFIO group in vfio_pin/unpin_pages
in vfio_pin_pages() and vfio_unpin_pages(), before calling into iommu
driver, vfio group for the device is first searched and gets reference
count increased; and after calling into iommu driver, the vfio group is
dereference.
This searching/ref/deref operations can be combined for several calls by
invoking holding reference of the VFIO group prior to use it and not
releasing the VFIO group until finishing using it.
vfio_pin_pages_from_group() and vfio_unpin_pages_from_group() are
introduced to avoid the above inefficient lookup of VFIO group.
