a74317f636eb3352210fff5c58896ddc1e5aabdf vfio: Sanity check maximum number of DMA mappings with RamDiscardManager
Although RamDiscardManager can handle running into the maximum number of
DMA mappings by propagating errors when creating a DMA mapping, we want
to sanity check and warn the user early that there is a theoretical setup
issue and that virtio-mem might not be able to provide as much memory
towards a VM as desired.
As suggested by Alex, let's use the number of KVM memory slots to guess
how many other mappings we might see over time.
