[libvirt] [PATCH 3/8] qemu: add VFIO devices to cgroup ACL

We don't know exactly the names of the VFIO devices that will be
needed (and due to hotplug, we can't ever assume we won't need them at
all), so we just add an ACL to allow any vfio device - they all have
the major number 244 (/dev/vfio/vfio is 244,0, and the /dev/vfio/n
devices are up from there).
