Ping,

I have started working on V2 patch set based on review comment so far
received. It would be  great if I get your review comment too.

Also few of my patch code base changes for V2 version gonna overlap
with Yuanhan latest virtio 1.0 patch set titled "[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/6
for 2.3] initial virtio 1.0 enabling ", Specially patch 4 and 5. So I
would appreciate any review feedback. That avoid overlapping for me.
Some questions though:
- Shall I rebase Yuanhan's virtio 1.0 patch set, then start v2? By
doing that I could leverage "viritio: switch to 64 bit features". In
this patch series, I did took care of 32 bit vs 64 bit changes for
arm64 case.
