The motivation of this change is to reduce vDPA device queue creation
time by create some queue resource in vDPA device probe stage.

s/create/creating/


In VM live migration scenario, this can reduce 0.8ms for each queue
creation, thus reduce LM network downtime.

To create queue resource(umem/counter) in advance, we need to know
virtio queue depth and max number of queue VM will use.

Introduce two new devargs: queues(max queue pair number) and queue_size
(queue depth). Two args must be both provided, if only one argument
provided, the argument will be ignored and no pre-creation.

The queues and queue_size must also be identical to vhost configuration
driver later receive. Otherwise either the pre-create resource is wasted
or missing or the resource need destroy and recreate(in case queue_size
mismatch).

Pre-create umem/counter will keep alive until vDPA device removal.
