Currently, we translate each 2MB chunk to manually check
if it's contiguous with the previous one, but there are
rte_vhost APIs that do it way more efficiently.
rte_vhost_va_from_guest_pa() was introduced in DPDK 18.02,
but was backported to 17.11 as well, so we don't even need
any RTE_VERSION ifdefs to use it now. This function
calculates the remaining region size instead of trying to
translate subsequent 2MB chunks over and over.
The previous rte_vhost_gpa_to_vva() was deprecated a long
time ago and after this patch we no longer make any use of
it.
DPDK usages of this new function check if the translated
memory region has 0 length, which seems very silly, but
let's just do it in SPDK as well.
