[Jianfeng Tan <jianfeng.tan@intel.com>]

v3:
  - Fix compiling issue on 32-bit system.
  - Fix a segment fault issue when sending VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE.
  - Squash the patch (use virtual address in mq) into "virtio for container"
    patch series.

v2:
  - Move the ctrl queue handler and multi queue logic into device emulation.
  - Rebase on newest code.

This patch set depends on below patch sets:

Add multi queue support for virtio-user virtual port. Patch 1 adds vhost
user adapter communications for enable/disable queues. Patch 2 adds features
check for multi queue and provides a method for virtio-user driver to
enable/disable queues. Patch 3 partially implements ctrl-q to handle
VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ_VQ_PAIRS_SET command from PMD.

Test case:
1. start testpmd with a vhost-user port:
 $ TESTPMD -c 0x7 -n 4 --socket-mem 1024,0 --no-pci \
      --vdev 'eth_vhost0,iface=/tmp/sock0,queues=2' \
      -- -i --rxq=2 --txq=2 --nb-cores=2
2. start testpmd with a virtio-user port:
 $ TESTPMD -c 0x70 -n 4 --socket-mem 1024,0 --no-pci --file-prefix=testpmd \
      --vdev=virtio-user0,mac=00:01:02:03:04:05,path=/tmp/sock0,queues=2 \
      -- -i --rxq=2 --txq=2 --nb-cores=2 --txqflags=0xf01 --disable-hw-vlan
3. use below commands to see if all queues are working:
 testpmd> show port xstats all
