I didn't have performance number, but would do it when have time.
Yes, it is not needed when virtio backend/device is working in polling mode.
But anyway, ioctl isn't needed at all.

There is two purpose with this patch. One is to support MMIO, and the
other is to
unify/simplify the way to get IO/MMIO resource and read/write IO/MMIO
port for virtio PMD.
Current implementation is too complicated.
