    backends/iommufd: report error when /dev/iommu is not available

    In case current kernel does not support /dev/iommu, qemu will probably
    fail first because /sys/bus/pci/devices/*/vfio-dev/ is not present,
    since QEMU opens it before /dev/iommu.

    Instead, report an error directly when completing an iommufd object, to
    inform user that kernel does not support it, with a hint about missing
    CONFIG_IOMMUFD. We can't do this from initialize as there is no way to
    return an error, and we don't want to abort at this step.
