The above alloc_hwpt fails for mdevs (at least, it fails for me attempting to
use iommufd backend with vfio-ccw and vfio-ap on s390). The ioctl is failing
in the kernel because it can't find an IOMMUFD_OBJ_DEVICE.
AFAIU that's because the mdevs are meant to instead use kernel access via
vfio_iommufd_emulated_attach_ioas, not hwpt. That's how mdevs behave when
looking at the kernel vfio compat container.
As a test, I was able to get vfio-ccw and vfio-ap working using the iommufd
backend by just skipping this alloc_hwpt above and instead passing
container->ioas_id into the iommufd_cdev_attach_hwpt below. That triggers the
vfio_iommufd_emulated_attach_ioas call in the kernel.
