In last few tests that we made with PCI-passthrough and VT-d using
iperf, we were able to get the same throughput as on native OS with a 1G
NIC (with higher CPU utilization).

The following patches are the PCI-passthrough patches that Amit sent
(re-based on the last kvm tree), followed by a few improvements and the
VT-d extension.
I am also sending the userspace patches: the patch that Amit sent for
PCI passthrough and the direct-mmio extension for userspace (note that
without the direct mmio extension we get less then half the throughput).

Per Avi's request, I am resending the kernel patches, folding patches 3/8, 4/8, 5/8.

Regards,
Ben
