This two-patches series aims at specifying the protocol update
required to support device IOTLB with user backends.
The protocol is very close to kernel backends, except that a new
communication channel is introduced to enable the slave to send
requests to the master.
While unix sockets are bidirectionnal, I create a dedicated channel
for slave intiated requests to simplify message handling with multi-
threaded masters and slaves.

spec/vhost-user: Introduce secondary channel for slave initiated
requests
spec/vhost-user spec: Add IOMMU support
