Many of these should be cleaned up with proper qdev-/QOM-ification.
Right now there are many catch-all headers in include/hw/ARCH depending
on cpu.h, and this makes it necessary to compile these files per-target.
However, fixing this does not belong in these patches.

This patch lets vhost support multiqueue. The idea is simple, just launching
multiple threads of vhost and let each of vhost thread processing a subset of
the virtqueues of the device. After this change each emulated device can have
multiple vhost threads as its backend.
To do this, a virtqueue index were introduced to record to first virtqueue that
will be handled by this vhost_net device. Based on this and nvqs, vhost could
calculate its relative index to setup vhost_net device.
Since we may have many vhost/net devices for a virtio-net device. The setting of
guest notifiers were moved out of the starting/stopping of a specific vhost
thread. The vhost_net_{start|stop}() were renamed to
vhost_net_{start|stop}_one(), and a new vhost_net_{start|stop}() were introduced
to configure the guest notifiers and start/stop all vhost/vhost_net devices.

Support backend guest notifier masking in vhost-net:
create eventfd at device init, when masked,
make vhost use that as eventfd instead of
sending an interrupt.

The path to /dev/vhost-net is currently hardcoded in vhost_dev_init().
This needs to be changed so that /dev/vhost-scsi can be used. Pass in
the device path instead of hardcoding it.

This reaches into the innards of the memory core, which are being
changed. Switch to a memory API version.

Drop the use of cpu_register_phys_memory_client() in favour of the new
MemoryListener API. The new API simplifies the caller, since there is no
need to deal with splitting and merging slots; however this is not exploited
in this patch.

When the vhost notifier is disabled, the userspace handler runs
immediately: virtio_pci_set_host_notifier_internal might
call virtio_queue_notify_vq.
Since the VQ state and the tap backend state aren't
recovered yet, this causes
"Guest moved used index from XXX to YYY" assertions.
The solution is to split out host notifier handling
from vhost VQ setup and disable notifiers as our last step
when we stop vhost-net. For symmetry enable them first thing
on start.

When MSI is off, each interrupt needs to be bounced through the io
thread when it's set/cleared, so vhost-net causes more context switches and
higher CPU utilization than userspace virtio which handles networking in
the same thread.
We'll need to fix this by adding level irq support in kvm irqfd,
for now disable vhost-net in these configurations.
Added a vhostforce flag to force vhost-net back on.

This adds vhost net device support in qemu. Will be tied to tap device
and virtio by following patches. Raw backend is currently missing,
will be worked on/submitted separately.
