Shuang Zheng c26ae8c420 hv: Inter-VM communication config for hybrid_rt on whl-ipc-i5
add an IVSHMEM regoin and the related configuration parameters in
hybrid_rt scenario on whl-ipc-i5. The size of the shared memory is
2M, and it is used for the communication between VM0 and VM2.

v6: rename shm name; remove unnecessary MACROs.

v7: rename MACRO for shm name; add unassigned vbdf for post-launched
    VMs.

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.
