Hi,
  This pair of patches adds the core of the virtio-fs support to qemu;
it's marked experimental since the kernel patch and spec changes aren't
in yet; but they're bubbling along.

  While the spec change is still in progress; the ID number is already
reserved.

  A future set of patches will add the optional DAX mapping support.

  The actual qemu change is pretty minimal, since it's really only
a virtio device with some queues.

  virtio spec changes: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio-dev/201908/msg00104.html

v2:
  Renamed num_queues to num_request_queues
  Add a not-reached assert to vuf_handle_output
  Kill the one bit of notification queue off
  Use the same trick as vhost-user-scsi to calculate the number
    of vectors for the PCI device

  virtio: add vhost-user-fs base device
  virtio: add vhost-user-fs-pci device
