s390/ap: driver callback to indicate resource in use
Introduces a new driver callback to prevent a root user from re-assigning the APQN of a queue that is in use by a non-default host device driver to a default host device driver and vice versa. The callback will be invoked whenever a change to the AP bus's sysfs apmask or aqmask attributes would result in one or more APQNs being re-assigned. If the callback responds in the affirmative for any driver queried, the change to the apmask or aqmask will be rejected with a device busy error. For this patch, only non-default drivers will be queried. Currently, there is only one non-default driver, the vfio_ap device driver. The vfio_ap device driver facilitates pass-through of an AP queue to a guest. The idea here is that a guest may be administered by a different sysadmin than the host and we don't want AP resources to unexpectedly disappear from a guest's AP configuration (i.e., adapters and domains assigned to the matrix mdev). This will enforce the proper procedure for removing AP resources intended for guest usage which is to first unassign them from the matrix mdev, then unbind them from the vfio_ap device driver.
