  To: mst, jasowang, lulu, amorenoz, qemu-devel; +Cc: Maxime Coquelin

This patch specifies the VHOST_USER_SET_STATUS and
VHOST_USER_GET_STATUS requests, which are sent by
the master to update and query the Virtio status
in the backend.

Changes since v2:
=================
- Typo: fix missing # (Jason)

Changes since v1:
=================
- Only keep the spec part in this patch, the implementation will
  be part of Cindy's Vhost vDPA series it depends on. The goal is
  to be able to implement it in next DPDK release even if Qemu part
  is not merged.
- Add GET_STATUS after discussions with Michael and Jason. It can
  be used by the master to ensure FEATURES_OK bit set is
  acknowledged by the backend.
