The series contains an implement of a vfio-user client in QEMU, along with a few
more preparatory patches.

The vfio-user protocol allows for implementing (PCI) devices in another
userspace process; SPDK is one example, which includes a virtual NVMe
implementation.

The vfio-user framework consists of 3 parts:
  1) The VFIO user protocol specification.
  2) A client - the VFIO device in QEMU that encapsulates VFIO messages
     and sends them to the server.
  3) A server - a remote process that emulates a device.

This patchset implements parts 1 and 2.

It has been tested against libvfio-user test servers as well as SPDK.

I am planning to take first patches 2,3,4 in vfio-next. The rest
either requires rework or conflicts with the live update series.
Tell me if you are ok with that.


Thanks,

C.
