The reason for introducing two capabilities, one for the device itself
(cap 'mdev') and one for the parent device listing the available types
('mdev_types'), is that we should be able to do
'virsh nodedev-list --cap' not only for existing mdev devices but also
for devices that support creation of mdev devices, since one day libvirt
might be actually able to create the mdev devices in an automated way
(just like we do for NPIV/vHBA).

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
