vfio: Replace phys_pfn with pages for vfio_pin_pages()
Most of the callers of vfio_pin_pages() want "struct page *" and the
low-level mm code to pin pages returns a list of "struct page *" too.
So there's no gain in converting "struct page *" to PFN in between.
Replace the output parameter "phys_pfn" list with a "pages" list, to
simplify callers. This also allows us to replace the vfio_iommu_type1
implementation with a more efficient one.
And drop the pfn_valid check in the gvt code, as there is no need to
do such a check at a page-backed struct page pointer.
For now, also update vfio_iommu_type1 to fit this new parameter too.
