Christoph Hellwig da44c340c4 vfio/mdev: simplify mdev_type handling
Instead of abusing struct attribute_group to control initialization of
struct mdev_type, just define the actual attributes in the mdev_driver,
allocate the mdev_type structures in the caller and pass them to
mdev_register_parent.

This allows the caller to use container_of to get at the containing
structure and thus significantly simplify the code.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
