[RFT][PATCH v2 0/9] Update vfio_pin/unpin_pages API

This is a preparatory series for IOMMUFD v2 patches. It prepares for
replacing vfio_iommu_type1 implementations of vfio_pin/unpin_pages()
with IOMMUFD version.

There's a gap between these two versions: the vfio_iommu_type1 version
inputs a non-contiguous PFN list and outputs another PFN list for the
pinned physical page list, while the IOMMUFD version only supports a
contiguous address input by accepting the starting IO virtual address
of a set of pages to pin and by outputting to a physical page list.

The nature of existing callers mostly aligns with the IOMMUFD version,
except s390's vfio_ccw_cp code where some additional change is needed
along with this series. Overall, updating to "iova" and "phys_page"
does improve the caller side to some extent.

Also fix a misuse of physical address and virtual address in the s390's
crypto code. And update the input naming at the adjacent vfio_dma_rw().

This is on github:
https://github.com/nicolinc/iommufd/commits/vfio_pin_pages

Request for testing: I only did build for s390 and i915 code, so it'd
be nice to have people who have environment to run sanity accordingly.

Thanks!
