This patch series performs a clean up of the code in virtio_ring and virtio_pci, modifying it to conform with the Linux kernel coding style guidance [1]. The modifications ensure the code easy to read and understand. This small series does few short cleanups in the code. Patch-1 Remove unnecessary num zero check, which performs in power_of_2. Patch-2 Avoid using inline for small functions.

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.

## About DMA APIs Now, virtio may can not work with DMA APIs when virtio features do not have VIRTIO_F_ACCESS_PLATFORM. 1. I tried to let DMA APIs return phy address by virtio-device. But DMA APIs just work with the "real" devices. 2. I tried to let xsk support callballs to get phy address from virtio-net driver as the dma address. But the maintainers of xsk may want to use
