similar to: [PATCH net-next] vhost: remove unnecessary forward declarations in vhost.h

Qemu supports up to UIO_MAXIOV s/g so we have to match that because guest drivers may rely on this. Allocate indirect and log arrays dynamically to avoid using too much contigious memory and make the length of hdr array to match the header length since each iovec entry has a least one byte. Test with copying large files w/ and w/o migration in both linux and windows guests. Signed-off-by: Jason

Move vhost.h to include/linux to allow vhost driver out-of-tree compilation. Currently, this cannot be done properly because the vhost header file is in driver/vhost. To distribute a new vhost driver before it is included in the kernel tree, we need to package it using kmod, dkms, ..., and to compile it out-of-tree using headers provided by the distribution's kernel development package.

In the next patches each vq might have different workers so one could have work but others do not. For net, we only want to check specific vqs, so this adds a helper to check if a vq has work pending and converts vhost-net to use it.

The patch (7235acdb1) changed the way of the work flushing in which the queued seq, done seq, and the flushing are not used anymore. Then remove them now.

We used to implement the work flushing through tracking queued seq, done seq, and the number of flushing. This patch simplify this by just implement work flushing through another kind of vhost work with completion. This will be used by lockless enqueuing patch.

I saw WARN_ON(!list_empty(&dev->work_list)) trigger so our custom flush is not as airtight as need be. This patch switches to a simple atomic counter + srcu instead of the custom locked queue + flush implementation. This will slow down the setup ioctls, which should not matter - it's slow path anyway. We use the expedited flush to at least make sure it has a sane time bound. Works
