Hi Michael,
do you think this series is in an acceptable state to be queued for the next merge window?

All patches should be already acked by Jason, let me know if I need to change anything.

Thanks,
Stefano

This series is the second part of the v1 linked above. The first part with
refactoring of vdpa_sim has already been merged.

The patches are based on Max Gurtovoy's work and extend the block simulator to
have a ramdisk behaviour.

As mentioned in the v1 there was 2 issues and I fixed them in this series:
1. The identical mapping in the IOMMU used until now in vdpa_sim created issues
when mapping different virtual pages with the same physical address.
Fixed by patch "vdpa_sim: use iova module to allocate IOVA addresses"

2. There was a race accessing the IOMMU between the vdpasim_blk_work() and the
device driver that map/unmap DMA regions. Fixed by patch "vringh: add
'iotlb_lock' to synchronize iotlb accesses"

I used the Xie's patch coming from VDUSE series to allow vhost-vdpa to use
block devices, and I added get_config_size() callback to allow any device
in vhost-vdpa.

The series also includes small fixes for vringh, vdpa, and vdpa_sim that I
discovered while implementing and testing the block simulator.

Thanks for your feedback,
Stefano
