[PATCH] vfio: Replace module request with softdep

[Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>]

Rather than doing a module request from within the init function, add
a soft dependency on the available IOMMU backend drivers.  This makes
the dependency visible to userspace when picking modules for the
ram disk.
