Liu Shuo 5a3632e583 virtio-heci: Introduce TX and RX threads for data transfer
Backend service access the native HECI driver through MEI driver
interface in service OS. Some MEI clients need to be multiplexed,
the backend service will engage necessary service at clients filter.

TX thread is for passing data from guest to host MEI driver, then to
native hardware. RX thread is for passing data from native hardware to
guest.

ACRN Device Model
#################

Introduction
============
The ACRN Device Model provides **device sharing** capabilities between the Service OS and Guest OSs. It is a component that is used in conjunction with the `ACRN Hypervisor`_ and this is installed within the Service OS. You can find out more about Project ACRN on the `Project ACRN documentation`_ website.
