When doing device passthrough where interrupts are being forwarded from
host to guest, we wish to use a pinned section of guest memory as the
vector (the same memory used by the guest as the vector). To accomplish
this, add a new parameter for airq_iv_create which allows passing an
existing vector to be used instead of allocating a new one. The caller
is responsible for ensuring the vector is pinned in memory as well as for
unpinning the memory when the vector is no longer needed.

A subsequent patch will use this new parameter for zPCI interpretation.
