Yes, I am also worried about the review problem, the number of my local resize
patch has reached 44 (including reuse bufs).

hi, Michael, can we implement resize on top of v8 first? (drop unused bufs directly)

Then we implement premmapd and reuse the bufs after resize.

We need to get the address (DMA address) and len from the reset ring and submit
it to the new vq through virtqueue_add(). So let virtqueue_add() support
premapped first.

Thanks.
