Enable support for creating irqfds which can raise an interrupt on a
Gunyah virtual machine. irqfds are exposed to userspace as a Gunyah VM
function with the name "irqfd". If the VM devicetree is not configured
to create a doorbell with the corresponding label, userspace will still
be able to assert the eventfd but no interrupt will be raised on the
guest.

I have a minor suggestion.  I think I'd like to look at this
again, so:

The BIT macro isn't a standard C macro and isn't defined by Linux, so it causes compile errors at least for me when I use it in userspace.
