ivshmem has its very own code to create and map shared memory. Replace that with an implicitly created memory backend. Reduces the number of ways we create BAR 2 from three to two. The memory-backend-file is currently available only with CONFIG_LINUX, so this adds a second Linuxism to ivshmem (the other one is eventfd). Should we ever need to make it portable to systems where memory-backend-file can't be made to serve, we could create a memory-backend-shmem that allocates memory with shm_open(). Bonus fix: shared memory files are now created with permissions 0655 instead of 0777. Signed-off-by:Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Reviewed-by:
