Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] vhost: enable IOMMU for async vhost
The use of IOMMU has many advantages, such as isolation and address
translation. This patch extends the capbility of DMA engine to use IOMMU if
the DMA engine is bound to vfio.
When set memory table, the guest memory will be mapped into the default
container of DPDK.

How about using bool for dma_map_success?
The bigger problem here is that you are breaking the ABI.
Maybe this kind of driver-facing structs/functions should be removed
from ABI, since we are refactoring DPDK ABI recently.
It has actually been exposed for SPDK, we cannot just remove it from
API.
