vfio: avoid inefficient operations on VFIO group in vfio_pin/unpin_pages
vfio_group_pin_pages() and vfio_group_unpin_pages() are introduced to
avoid inefficient search/check/ref/deref opertions associated with VFIO
group as those in each calling into vfio_pin_pages() and
vfio_unpin_pages().
VFIO group is taken as arg directly. The callers combine
search/check/ref/deref operations associated with VFIO group by calling
vfio_group_get_external_user()/vfio_group_get_external_user_from_dev()
beforehand, and vfio_group_put_external_user() afterwards.
