O-Subject: [PATCH RHEL7 qemu-kvm v2 2/2] vfio: cap number of devices that can be assigned
Bugzilla: 678368

Go through all groups to get count of total number of devices
active to enforce limit
Reasoning from Alex for the limit(32) - Assuming 3 slots per
device, with 125 slots (number of memory slots for RHEL 7),
we can support almost 40 devices and still have few slots left
for other uses. Stepping down a bit, the number 32 arbitrarily
matches the number of slots on a PCI bus and is also a nice power
of two.
