[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] vfio: support iommu group zero

From: Stephen Hemminger <stephen at networkplumber.org>

The implementation of VFIO is broken on some platforms and if using
the proposed VFIO without IOMMU patch.  IOMMU group zero is a valid value.

Change code to split the return value from the group value.
