Maybe this will be called from other places in the future, but the
vfio_region_setup() caller below already invoked vfio_get_region_info()
so I'm not sure it's necessary to do this again?

Perhaps add an int *remfd argument to vfio_get_region_info(). That way
vfio_get_region_info_remfd() isn't necessary.

Why is it necessary to introduce a cache? Is it to avoid passing the
same fd multiple times?

The previous line already copied the contents of *info. What is the
purpose of this assignment?

Please use uint32_t size instead of int size to prevent possible
signedness issues:
- VFIOUserRegionInfo->argsz is uint32_t.
- sizeof(VFIOUserHdr) is size_t.
- The vfio_user_request_msg() size argument is uint32_t.
