This patch implements two new AP driver callbacks:
void (*on_config_changed)(struct ap_config_info *new_config_info,
struct ap_config_info *old_config_info);
void (*on_scan_complete)(struct ap_config_info *new_config_info,
struct ap_config_info *old_config_info);
The on_config_changed callback is invoked at the start of the AP bus scan
function when it determines that the host AP configuration information
has changed since the previous scan.
The vfio_ap device driver registers a callback function for this callback
that performs the following operations:
1. Unplugs the adapters, domains and control domains removed from the
host's AP configuration from the guests to which they are
assigned in a single operation.
2. Stores bitmaps identifying the adapters, domains and control domains
added to the host's AP configuration with the structure representing
the mediated device. When the vfio_ap device driver's probe callback is
subsequently invoked, the probe function will recognize that the
queue is being probed due to a change in the host's AP configuration
and the plugging of the queue into the guest will be bypassed.
The on_scan_complete callback is invoked after the ap bus scan is
completed if the host AP configuration data has changed. The vfio_ap
device driver registers a callback function for this callback that hot
plugs each queue and control domain added to the AP configuration for each
guest using them in a single hot plug operation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
