This patch add the capability of basic vhost net busy polling which is
supported by recent kernel. User could configure the maximum number of
us that could be spent on busy polling through a new property of tap
"poll-us".

The initial vhost-user connection sets the features to be negotiated
with the driver. Renegotiation isn't possible without device reset.
To handle reconnection of vhost-user backend, ensure the same set of
features are provided, and reuse already acked features.

A new vhost user message is added to allow QEMU to ask to vhost user backend to
broadcast a fake RARP after live migration for guest without GUEST_ANNOUNCE
capability.
This new message is sent only if the backend supports the new
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_RARP protocol feature.
The payload of this new message is the MAC address of the guest (not known by
the backend). The MAC address is copied in the first 6 bytes of a u64 to avoid
to create a new payload message type.
This new message has no equivalent ioctl so a new callback is added in the
userOps structure to send the request.
Upon reception of this new message the vhost user backend must generate and
broadcast a fake RARP request to notify the migration is terminated.

Add a new message, VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE, to enable or disable
a specific virt queue, which is similar to attach/detach queue for
tap device.
virtio driver on guest doesn't have to use max virt queue pair, it
could enable any number of virt queue ranging from 1 to max virt
queue pair.

This is for querying how many queues the backend supports if it has mq
support(when VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_MQ flag is set from the quried
protocol features).
vhost_net_get_max_queues() is the interface to export that value, and
to tell if the backend supports # of queues user requested, which is
done in the following patch.

We use vhostforce to enable vhost even if Guests don't have MSI-X
support and we fall back to QEMU virtio-net.
This gives a very small performance gain, but the disadvantage
is that guest now controls which virtio code is running
(qemu or vhost) so our attack surface is doubled.
This patch will enable vhost unconditionally whenever it's requested.
For compatibility, enable vhost when vhostforce is set, as well.

Make sure that all vhost interfaces use 64 bit features, as the virtio
core does, and make sure to use ULL everywhere possible to be on the
safe side.

vhost_dev_init will replace devfd and devpath with a single opaque argument.
This is initialised with a file descriptor. When TAP is used (through
vhost_net), open /dev/vhost-net and pass the fd as an opaque parameter in
VhostNetOptions. The same applies to vhost-scsi - open /dev/vhost-scsi and
pass the fd.

Many of these should be cleaned up with proper qdev-/QOM-ification.
Right now there are many catch-all headers in include/hw/ARCH depending
on cpu.h, and this makes it necessary to compile these files per-target.
However, fixing this does not belong in these patches.
