Whenever the memory is resized, it's important to retrieve the new
region to pass it down to the device manager, this way it can decide
what to do with it.
Also, there's no need to use a boolean as we can instead use an Option
to carry the information about the region. In case of virtio-mem, there
will be no region since the whole memory has been reserved up front by
the VMM at boot. This means only the ACPI hotplug will return a region
and is the only method that requires the memory to be updated from the
device manager.

We want to prevent from losing interrupts while they are masked. The
way they can be lost is due to the internals of how they are connected
through KVM. An eventfd is registered to a specific GSI, and then a
route is associated with this same GSI.
The current code adds/removes a route whenever a mask/unmask action
happens. Problem with this approach, KVM will consume the eventfd but
it won't be able to find an associated route and eventually it won't
be able to deliver the interrupt.
That's why this patch introduces a different way of masking/unmasking
the interrupts, simply by registering/unregistering the eventfd with the
GSI. This way, when the vector is masked, the eventfd is going to be
written but nothing will happen because KVM won't consume the event.
Whenever the unmask happens, the eventfd will be registered with a
specific GSI, and if there's some pending events, KVM will trigger them,
based on the route associated with the GSI.

The kernel does not adhere to the ACPI specification (probably to work

reset.)
In order to trigger a reset the devices write to an EventFd (called
reset_evt.) This is used by the VMM to identify if a reset is requested
and make the VM reboot. As the reset_evt is part of the VMM and reused
for both the old and new VM it is possible for the newly booted VM to
immediately get reset as there is an old event sitting in the EventFd.
The simplest solution is to "drain" the reset_evt EventFd on reboot to
make sure that there is no spurious events in the EventFd.
