> ========
> - Patch 1 handles VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_BASE, which tells us where
>   the dirty memory bitmap is.
>     
> - Patch 2 introduces a vhost_log_write() helper function to log
>   pages we are gonna change.
> 
> - Patch 3 logs changes we made to used vring.
> 
> - Patch 4 logs changes we made to vring desc buffer.
> 
> - Patch 5 and 7 add some feature bits related to live migration.
> 
> - patch 6 does the RARP construction and broadcast job.

Patches 2 and 3 have been merged to avoid a compilation error.
