vfio: Whitelist PCI bridges

When determining whether a group is viable, we already allow devices
bound to pcieport.  Generalize this to include any PCI bridge device.

- * Whitelist some drivers that we know are safe (no dma) or just sit on
- * a device.  It's not always practical to leave a device within a group
- * driverless as it could get re-bound to something unsafe.
+ * Some drivers, like pci-stub, are only used to prevent other drivers from
+ * claiming a device and are therefore perfectly legitimate for a user owned
+ * group.  The pci-stub driver has no dependencies on DMA or the IOVA mapping
+ * of the device, but it does prevent the user from having direct access to
+ * the device, which is useful in some circumstances.
+ *
+ * We also assume that we can include PCI interconnect devices, ie. bridges.
+ * IOMMU grouping on PCI necessitates that if we lack isolation on a bridge
+ * then all of the downstream devices will be part of the same IOMMU group as
+ * the bridge.  Thus, if placing the bridge into the user owned IOVA space
+ * breaks anything, it only does so for user owned devices downstream.  Note
+ * that error notification via MSI can be affected for platforms that handle
+ * MSI within the same IOVA space as DMA.
