This sample driver creates mdev device that simulate virtio net device

Only 'virtio' type is supported right now. I plan to add 'vhost' type
on top which requires some virtual IOMMU implemented in this sample
driver.
Can we please submit a real driver for it? A more or less useless
sample driver doesn't really qualify for our normal kernel requirements
that infrastructure should have a real user.
Hello Christoph,
I am working on a real hardware driver for it, it's called IFC, I have
posted RFC V1 and will post RFC V2 soon.
Thanks,
