Thanks. Yes, I agree we need to provides such information through
"struct virtio_net".
And the callback handler needs to handle the vhost specific structure
directly.

Probably it's difficult to remove "struct virtio_net" from callback
handler of DPDK app.
This is the point I want to describe.

Tetsuya,
