This patch updates the vfio-ap documentation to include the information below. Changes made to the mdev matrix assignment interfaces: * Allow assignment of APQNs that are not bound to the vfio-ap device driver as long as they are not owned by a zcrypt driver as identified in the AP bus sysfs apmask and aqmask interfaces. * Allow assignment of an AP resource to a mediated device which is in use by a guest to hot plug an adapter, domain and control domain into a running guest. * Allow unassignment of an AP resource from a mediated device which is in use by a guest to hot unplug an adapter, domain and control domain from a running guest. This patch also: * Clarifies the section on configuring the AP bus's apmask and aqmask. * Adds sections on dynamic configuration using the SE or SCLP command.
