I guess that's probably not unreasonable. It's going to clash
with the various docs patchsets already on list, though.
And it's a bit odd that the only doc file in docs/tools
doesn't seem to be documenting a tool (it's a more general
'security guide'; I think the case would be better if the
doc you were adding was the virtiofsd manpage, which doesn't
seem to exist yet). Our other "stuff between guest and host"
docs (including other vhost-user topics and the qemu-ga guest
agent docs) are all in interop/.

PS: you forgot to add the new docs/tools entry to
docs/index.html.in.
