And we should try to avoid

That's really good point. So when "vhost" type is created, parent
should assume addr of ctrl_vq is hva.
Thanks
This works for vhost but not virtio since there's no way for virtio
kernel driver to differ ctrl_vq with the rest when doing DMA map. One
possible solution is to provide DMA domain isolation between virtqueues.
Then ctrl vq can use its dedicated DMA domain for the work.
Anyway, this could be done in the future. We can have a version first
that doesn't support ctrl_vq.
Thanks
