v3:
- added new patches
  - 'vringh: explain more about cleaning riov and wiov'
  - 'vdpa: add return value to get_config/set_config callbacks'
  - 'vhost/vdpa: remove vhost_vdpa_config_validate()'
- split Xie's patch 'vhost/vdpa: Remove the restriction that only supports
  virtio-net devices'
- updated Mellanox copyright to NVIDIA [Max]
- explained in the 'vdpa: add vdpa simulator for block device' commit
  message that inputs are validated in subsequent patches [Stefan]

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[e-mail]/
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[e-mail]/

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. As Jason suggested I split it into two patches and I added
a return value to get_config()/set_config() callbacks.

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
