Junjie Mao 88f74b5dbb HV: io: unify vhm_request req and mem_io in vcpu
The current struct vcpu has two members, namely 'struct vhm_request req' and
'struct mem_io mmio', that hold similar info, including the address, direction, size,
value and status of mmio reqeusts.

As a step towards a unified framework for both MMIO/PIO, this patch unifies
these two members by a tailored version of vhm_reqeust, mostly with the reserved
fields dropped. The definitions to request types, directions and process status
are reused.

Handling errors during emulations will be revisited after the I/O emulation
paths are unified. Thus for this patch the mmio.mmio_status in inherited by
io_req.processed which is not yet properly processed.

Embedded-Hypervisor
###################

This open source embedded hypervisor defines a software architecture for
running multiple software subsystems managed securely on a consolidated
system (by means of a virtual machine manager), and defines a reference
framework Device Model implementation for devices emulation

This embedded hypervisor is type-1 reference hypervisor, running
directly on the system hardware. It can be used for building software
defined cockpit (SDC) or In-Vehicle Experience (IVE) solutions running
on Intel Architecture Apollo Lake platforms. As a reference
implementation, it provides the basis for embedded hypervisor vendors to
build solutions with an open source reference I/O mediation solution,
and provides auto makers a reference software stack for SDC usage.

This embedded hypervisor is able to support both Linux* and Android* as
a Guest OS, managed by the hypervisor, where applications can run.

This embedded hypervisor is a partitioning hypervisor reference stack,
also suitable for non-automotive IoT & embedded device solutions. It
will be addressing the gap that currently exists between datacenter
hypervisors, hard partitioning hypervisors, and select industrial
applications.  Extending the scope of this open source embedded
hypervisor relies on the involvement of community developers like you!
