You missed Alex's comment that the one caller can open code the
assignment instead of introducing an unmemorable Boolean arg here.

If we are gonna handle the exclusive open via dma ownership, then
here we don't need a new single_open flag inside vfio_device since
only one interface (cdev or group) could be used to open this device.

Just preventing multi-open in cdev is sufficient here.
