Previously we used VFIO if only the vfio-pci kernel module
was loaded, which is different from what our setup.sh script
did. On a fairly usual system configuration, setup.sh could
have bound devices to UIO, but SPDK would still try to map
memory to an (empty) DPDK VFIO container just because its fd
was available. That would fail obviously.
setup.sh checks for IOMMU presence in order to use vfio-pci
and SPDK should probably do the same. We could check the
kernel driver of each attached PCI device, but there's no
chance right now of supporting both UIO and VFIO devices
at the same time with IOMMU passthrough. That's not
a reasonable configuration anyway. To keep things simple,
we just add a single check on vtophys initialization.
