We'll need a config option here (disabled by default) and guard all
the postcopy related code.
Meson build will be able to detect the header file and enable
the config if possible. Like this:
lib/librte_vhost/meson.build:
if cc.has_header('linux/userfaultfd.h')
dpdk_conf.set10('RTE_LIBRTE_VHOST_POSTCOPY', true)
endif
