Looks pretty nice, comments inline.

If we do set_vq_state() in SET_VRING_BASE, we won't need this step here.

A question here, consider we're using noiommu mode. If guest physical 
address is passed here, how can a device use that?

I believe you meant "host physical address" here? And it also have the 
implication that the HPA should be continuous (e.g using hugetlbfs).

Does it mean the SET_VRING_BASE may only take affect after 
VHOST_MEV_SET_STATE?

The name could be confusing, get_queue_max() is to get the maximum 
number of entries for a virtqueue supported by this device.

It looks to me that we need another API to query the maximum number of 
virtqueues supported by the device.

Thanks
