vfio: Pass in starting IOVA to vfio_pin/unpin_pages API
The vfio_pin/unpin_pages() so far accepted arrays of PFNs of user IOVA.
Among all three callers, there was only one caller possibly passing in
a non-contiguous PFN list, which is now ensured to have contiguous PFN
inputs too.
Pass in the starting address with "iova" alone to simplify things, so
callers no longer need to maintain a PFN list or to pin/unpin one page
at a time. This also allows VFIO to use more efficient implementations
of pin/unpin_pages.
For now, also update vfio_iommu_type1 to fit this new parameter too,
while keeping its input intact (being user_iova) since we don't want
to spend too much effort swapping its parameters and local variables
at that level.
