From: Ani Sinha <anisinha@redhat.com>

A notifier callback can be used by various subsystems to perform actions when
KVM file descriptor for a virtual machine changes as a part of confidential
guest reset process. This change adds this notifier mechanism. Subsequent
patches will add specific implementations for various notifier callbacks
corresponding to various subsystems that need to take action when KVM VM file
descriptor changed.
