I don't exactly get why we need to split the modern driver out,
and it can confuse people who are used to be seeing virtio-pci.
The virtio-pci module still there. No user visible changes. Just some
codes that could be shared with other driver were split out.
The vdpa thing so far looks like a development tool, why do
we care that it depends on a bit of extra code?
If I'm not misunderstanding, trying to share codes is proposed by you here:

We also had the plan to convert IFCVF to use this library.
Thanks
