[PATCH 0/2] use vfio_iova_rw() to read/write IOVAs from CPU side

[Yan Zhao]

When device models read/write memory pointed by a range of IOVAs, it is
better to use vfio interfaces. And because this read/write is from CPUs,
there's no need to call vfio_pin_pages() to pin those memory.

patch 1 introduces interface vfio_iova_rw() in vfio to read/write
userspace IOVAs without pinning userspace pages.

patch 2 let gvt switch from kvm side rw interface to vfio_iova_rw().

  vfio: introduce vfio_iova_rw to read/write a range of IOVAs
