misc: Work around vfio_dma_map being unsound

This API passes a u64 to a kernel API that treats the u64 as a userspace
address.  Therefore, it should be marked unsafe, but it currently is not
[1].  Wrap the call in an unsafe block to document that invariants must
be upheld to avoid undefined behavior.  This causes a compiler warning,
so suppress the warning with #[allow(unused_unsafe)].
