I suspect the use of get/put here is very questionable
It only prevents the vfio_device from becoming unregistered, but the main thing a mdev should care about is if it is still beween opne_device() / close_device() - ie the FD is open, there is a SW IOMMU available, and memory pins can be made.
Still, not for this patch
