The KVM has an unmerged PV block device developed by Arjan van de Ven,
he might be interested.

In general IMHO if the PV devices {net, block} are implemented in the
kernel then they cannot enjoy from the shared memory. If these devices
are implemented in user space the chances are bigger, although the guest
memory is mapped by user space anyway.
Maybe you can build a very efficient inter guest communication channel?
