Hi Kirti,

Could you please move the notifier registration before parent->ops->open()?
as you might know, I'm extending your vfio_register_notifier to also include
the attaching/detaching events of vfio_group and kvm.  Basically if vfio_group
not attached to any kvm instance, the parent->ops->open() should return -ENODEV
to indicate the failure, but to know whether kvm is available in open(), the
notifier registration should be earlier.

Of course I can call vfio_register_notifier() from an earlier place to
workaround it, but it doesn't seem a canonical way.
