KVM: Device assignment: Check for privileges before assigning irq
Even though we don't share irqs at the moment, we should ensure regular user processes don't try to allocate system resources. We check for capability to access IO devices (CAP_SYS_RAWIO) before we request_irq on behalf of the guest. Noticed by Avi.
