Are there other reasons to let the unbind fail? Otherwise I'd suggest to
just make this a void function. Also not sure what the user of this
function should do when the unbind really fails.

What is this FORMAT_HOST for?

Can you also add a define for the version number? Userspace needs it to
initialize the struct and the kernel to check against it.

Thinking more about this, we can omit the sub-structs for models that
don't need them. For the amd-model for example the base_ptr and
pasid_bits fields are sufficient.
