This series moves the network device simulator in a new module

For now I removed the vdpa-blk simulator patches, since I'm still working
on them and debugging the iotlb issues.

Thanks to Max that started this work! I took his patches and extended a bit.

As Jason suggested, I simplified the "vdpa: split vdpasim to core and
net modules" patch, moving some changes out in small patches.
@Max: I put your Co-developed-by and Signed-off-by tags on these patches,
let me know if it is okay for you, or if there is a better way to give
credit to your work!

Stefano,

thanks for taking my initial series and bringing it to upstream level and thanks Jason for your reviews.

I'm ok with the tags and hopefully I'll be able to help a bit in the submission in couple of weeks.

Great! :-)
I'll keep you updated.


great progress !

Thanks,
Stefano
