Add support for generation of interrupts from the device directly to the VM to the VCPU thus avoiding the overhead on the host CPU. When supported, the driver will attempt to allocate vectors for each data virtqueue. If a vector for a virtqueue cannot be provided it will use the QP mode where notifications go through the driver. In addition, we add a shutdown callback to make sure allocated interrupts are released in case of shutdown to allow clean shutdown.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
