docs: Update VFIO binding instructions
With recent kernels, it is now expected to use "bind" control from the sysfs in order to bind a specific device to the vfio-pci driver. The use of "new_id" is still required but it is only needed once per device type. Let's say you want to bind two virtio-net devices, you will need to add the device_id:vendor_id pair through "new_id", while you will be required to use "bind" for each device. Fixes #2545 Signed-off-by: Sebastien Boeuf <sebastien.boeuf@intel.com>
