You should move this function definition to a separate patch and put it earlier
in the series, as you call this function two patches back.

Also, this gives me pause, as it seems like you're working around the VFIO api.
>From what I see, you just use this to get an fd that you can use in an ioctl to
set some DMA settings.  First off, theres already a function called
pci_vfio_get_container_fd, which does exactly what you are doing here, with
additional safety checking.  

However, even though there is an existing function to do what you want, I would
recommend that you not use it for your purposes.  Whenever you expose something
like a file descriptor, you run the risk of multiple accessors racing trying to
set/unset features and preform operations.  It would be better if you could add
apropriate api calls to vfio interface to set what you want.  That way the
library can add appropriate locking if/when needed
