XDP socket(AF_XDP) is an excellent bypass kernel network framework. The zero
copy feature of xsk (XDP socket) needs to be supported by the driver. The
performance of zero copy is very good.

ENV: Qemu with vhost.

Before achieving the function of Virtio-Net, we also have to let virtio core
support these features:

1. virtio core support premapped
2. virtio core support reset per-queue
3. introduce DMA APIs to virtio core

Please review.

Thanks.

v2:
 1. based on sgs[0]->dma_address to judgment is premapped
 2. based on extra.addr to judgment to do unmap for no-indirect desc
 3. based on indir_desc to judgment to do unmap for indirect desc
 4. rename virtqueue_get_dma_dev to virtqueue_dma_dev

v1:
 1. expose dma device. NO introduce the api for dma and sync
 2. split some commit for review.

Xuan Zhuo (12):
  virtio_ring: split: separate dma codes
  virtio_ring: packed: separate dma codes
  virtio_ring: packed-indirect: separate dma codes
  virtio_ring: split: support premapped
  virtio_ring: packed: support premapped
  virtio_ring: split-indirect: support premapped
  virtio_ring: packed-indirect: support premapped
  virtio_ring: update document for virtqueue_add_*
  virtio_ring: introduce virtqueue_dma_dev()
  virtio_ring: correct the expression of the description of
    virtqueue_resize()
  virtio_ring: separate the logic of reset/enable from virtqueue_resize
  virtio_ring: introduce virtqueue_reset()
