[PATCH v3 2/2] drivers/char: Use sub-page ro API to make just xhci dbc cap RO



Not the whole page, which may contain other registers too. The XHCI
specification describes DbC as designed to be controlled by a different
driver, but does not mandate placing registers on a separate page. In fact
on Tiger Lake and newer (at least), this page do contain other registers
that Linux tries to use. And with share=yes, a domU would use them too.
Without this patch, PV dom0 would fail to initialize the controller,
while HVM would be killed on EPT violation.

With `share=yes`, this patch gives domU more access to the emulator
(although a HVM with any emulated device already has plenty of it). This
configuration is already documented as unsafe with untrusted guests and
not security supported.

Changes in v3:
- indentation fix
- remove stale comment
- fallback to pci_ro_device() if subpage_mmio_ro_add() fails
- extend commit message
Changes in v2:
 - adjust for simplified subpage_mmio_ro_add() API
