Subject: [PATCH 0/1] Update vfio-user module to the latest

Hi,

This patch updates the libvfio-user submodule to the latest.

Just a rough idea, why not depends on linux distribution for the 
libvfio-user.so?
It looks no libvfio-user packet in distribution's repo.

Hi Thomas/Daniel:

For the RFC QEMU user space eBPF support,
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220617073630.535914-6-chen.zh...@intel.com/T/
Maybe introduce the libubpf.so as a subproject like libvfio-user.so is more 
appropriate?

Fair comment. I never noticed them before, but why do we have those submodules in the subprojects/ folder (libvduse, libvfio-user and libvhost-user)? ... I don't think it's the job of QEMU to ship libraries that a user might want to use for a certain feature, so could we please remove those submodules again? If someone wants to use this, they can compile the libraries on their own or help their favorite distribution to ship them as packages.

 Thomas
