This patchset implements support of SOCK_DGRAM for virtio transport. Datagram sockets are connectionless and unreliable. To avoid unfair contention with stream and other sockets, add two more virtqueues and a new feature bit to indicate if those two new queues exist or not. Dgram does not use the existing credit update mechanism for stream sockets. When sending from the guest/driver, sending packets synchronously, so the sender will get an error when the virtqueue is full. When sending from the host/device, send packets asynchronously because the descriptor memory belongs to the corresponding QEMU process.
