Subject: vfio: Don't leak a group reference if the group already exists
Git-commit: 325a31c920309d2225311573a05c2f4dd402b2ed
Patch-mainline: v5.16-rc1
References: bsc#1205701

If vfio_create_group() searches the group list and returns an already
existing group it does not put back the iommu_group reference that the
caller passed in.

Change the semantic of vfio_create_group() to not move the reference in
from the caller, but instead obtain a new reference inside and leave the
caller's reference alone. The two callers must now call iommu_group_put().

This is an unlikely race as the only caller that could hit it has already
searched the group list before attempting to create the group.
