I think this new ioctl is very interesting, and can be used to
optimize some parts of live migration with shadow virtqueue if it
allows to actually replace the uaddr. Would you be interested in that
capability?

I'm missing how these cases are handled:
* The device does not expose set_map but dma_map / dma_unmap (you can
check this case with the simulator)
* The device uses platform iommu (!set_map && !dma_unmap vdpa_ops).
