the major reason is to make the naming aligned since this patch
names the groups as KVM_DEV_VFIO_FILE.

hmmm, this way is clearer. I'd adopt it if it's acceptable.

legacy container/group path cannot do it as the below enhancement.
User needs to call KVM_DEV_VFIO_FILE before open devices, so this
should happen before _GET_DEVICE_FD. So the legacy path can never
pass device fds in KVM_DEV_VFIO_FILE.

just as here. This means device fds can only be passed with KVM_DEV_VFIO_FILE
in the cdev path.
