Supports both PCI mode (for usage in guest VMs) and
vhost-user mode (for usage in host processes). The rte_virtio
subdirectory contains a lot of code lifted from the DPDK
virtio-net driver. Most of the PCI and vhost-user code is
reused almost exactly as-is, but the virtio code is drastically
rewritten as the DPDK code was very network specific.
Has been lightly tested with both the bdevio and bdevperf
applications in both PCI and vhost-user modes.
Still quite a bit of work needed - a list of todo
items is included in a README in the module's directory.
