The series contains an implementation of a vfio-user client in QEMU.
The vfio-user protocol allows for implementing (PCI) devices in another
userspace process; SPDK is one example, which includes a virtual NVMe
implementation.
The vfio-user framework consists of 3 parts:
1) The VFIO user protocol specification.
2) A client - the VFIO device in QEMU that encapsulates VFIO messages
and sends them to the server.
3) A server - a remote process that emulates a device.
This patchset implements parts 1 and 2.
It has been tested against libvfio-user test servers as well as SPDK.
A functional test is still being worked on.

Changes since last series:
- fixed SPDX identifier nits
- code review changes for error handling
