Thanks for the v4.

Well, as I stated before, I am more of the opinion of letting the
VFIO_PRESENT define only within eal_vfio.h.

But in the end, as long as everything is working, I'm fine with it.
Unless someone is explicitly interested in going with my version, let's
keep yours. If needed I can always submit a new v4 that would actually
work with old kernels.

Sorry about the mess concerning VFIO. I found late in the work that I
needed to touch it, and did not have the test-bed for it.
