IIUC before this patch VHOST_GET_VRING_BASE and VHOST_SET_VRING_BASE
never worked with packed virtqueue, since we were only handling
last_avail_idx. Now we are supporting packed virtqueue, handling
in vhost_vring_state.num both last_avail_idx and last_used_idx (with
wrap counters).

For example for VHOST_GET_VRING_BASE where is documented that the first
15 bits are last_avail_idx, the 16th the avail_wrap_counter, and the
others are last_used_idx and used_wrap_counter?

Maybe I missed something, but since this is UAPI, IMHO we should
document the parameters of ioctls at least in
include/uapi/linux/vhost.h.

Thanks,
