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

This series moves the network device simulator in a new module
(vdpa_sim_net) and leaves the generic functions in the vdpa_sim core
module, allowing the possibility to add new vDPA device simulators.
Then we added a new vdpa_sim_blk module to simulate a block device.

I'm not sure about patch 11 ("vringh: allow vringh_iov_xfer() to skip
bytes when ptr is NULL"), maybe we can add a new functions instead of
modify vringh_iov_xfer().

As Max reported, I'm also seeing errors with vdpa_sim_blk related to
iotlb and vringh when there is high load, these are some of the error
messages I can see randomly:

  vringh: Failed to access avail idx at 00000000e8deb2cc
  vringh: Failed to read head: idx 6289 address 00000000e1ad1d50
  vringh: Failed to get flags at 000000006635d7a3

  virtio_vdpa vdpa0: vringh_iov_push_iotlb() error: -14 offset: 0x2840000 len: 0x20000
  virtio_vdpa vdpa0: vringh_iov_pull_iotlb() error: -14 offset: 0x58ee000 len: 0x3000

These errors should all be related to the fact that iotlb_translate()
fails with -EINVAL, so it seems that we miss some mapping.

I'll debug more carefully, in the meantime can you give a first review?

Thanks,
Stefano
