This patch adds a PCI device that provides PCI device memory to the
guest. This memory in the guest exists as a shared memory segment in
the host. This is similar memory sharing capability of Nahanni
(ivshmem) available in QEMU. In this case, the shared memory segment
is exposed as a PCI BAR only.
A new command line argument is added as:
--shmem pci:0xc8000000:16MB:handle=/newmem:create

FYI, that's not a valid vendor and device ID.
Perhaps the RH folks would be willing to reserve a portion of the device
ID space in their vendor ID for ya'll to play around with.
