Here's a patchset with vhost support for upstream qemu,
rabed to latest bits.

Note that irqchip/MSI is no longer required for vhost, but you should
not expect performance gains from vhost unless in-kernel irqchip is
enabled (which is not in upstream qemu now), and unless guest enables
MSI.  A follow-up patchset against qemu-kvm will add irqchip support.

Only virtio-pci is currently supported: I'm interested in supporting
syborg/s390 as well, and tried to make APIs generic to make this
possible.

Also missing is packet socket backend.

Looks pretty good overall.

Cc'd, you did review of these internally, I would be thankful
for review/ack upstream.

Changes from v1:
   Addressed style comments
   Migration fixes.
   Gracefully fail with non-tap backends.
