Yuan Liu 8a34cf03ca hv: add new hypercalls to create and destroy an emulated device in hypervisor
Add HC_CREATE_VDEV and HC_DESTROY_VDEV two hypercalls that are used to
create and destroy an emulated device(PCI device or legacy device) in hypervisor

v3: 1) change HC_CREATE_DEVICE and HC_DESTROY_DEVICE to HC_CREATE_VDEV
       and HC_DESTROY_VDEV
    2) refine code style

v4: 1) remove unnecessary parameter
    2) add VM state check for HC_CREATE_VDEV and HC_DESTROY hypercalls

Tracked-On: #4853

ACRN Hypervisor
###############

The open source `Project ACRN`_ defines a device hypervisor reference stack and
an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed securely, on
a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine manager. It also defines a
reference framework implementation for virtual device emulation, called the
"ACRN Device Model".

The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running directly on
the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of IoT and embedded
device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the gap that currently exists
between datacenter hypervisors, and hard partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN
hypervisor architecture partitions the system into different functional
domains, with carefully selected guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and
embedded devices.

You can find out more about Project ACRN on the `Project ACRN documentation`_
website.
