The patchset contains an attempt at the refactoring the `eventfd_link`
kernel module that is used to steal an FD in DPDK.

The first patch refactors old EVENTFD_COPY handler fixing the codepath
and errors returned from the kernel space. This patch is retained
for the backward compatibility.

The next one introduces a new more clean implementation of the
EVENTFD_COPY2 ioctl that allocates a new fd for the `struct file'
being stolen.

The last patch uses this new mechanism in the DPDK userspace.

  vhost: add EVENTFD_COPY2 ioctl
  vhost: using EVENTFD_COPY2
