What do you think to have the new git repo information here as
"T: ..."
To help people looking for the module.

And I think at least 'doc/guides/linux_gsg/linux_drivers.rst' should be updated
to document the new home of the kernel module, but there are multiple references
in the documentation to the 'igb_uio', perhaps they should be replaced with
'vfio' too?
