Given some of the other discussions around CC I suspect we should
rename these to 'create/destroy virtual device' with an eye that
eventually they would be extended like other ops with per-CC platform
data.

ie this would be the interface to tell the CC trusted world that a
secure device is being added to a VM with some additional flags..

Right now it only conveys the vRID parameter of the virtual device
being created.

A following question is if these objects should have their own IDs in
the iommufd space too, and then unset is not unset but just a normal
destroy object. If so then the thing you put in the ids xarray would
also just be a normal object struct.

This is probably worth doing if this is going to grow more CC stuff
later.
