Ulaş Sertan Kemeç fa935ecae1 drivers/vhost: Add vhost-net, a device-role virtio network driver.
Implements the device end of virtio-net, so a peer running the stock
virtio-net driver sees this side as a network card, and registers a netdev
lowerhalf.

Ring layout follows the peer's numbering: vq[0] is its RX queue, which we fill
to transmit, and vq[1] its TX queue, which we harvest.  No features are
negotiated, so every frame carries the zeroed legacy virtio_net_hdr.

Peer buffers are reached by raw 64-bit address through an arch-provided
translation window -- the AM67 RAT, identity mapping elsewhere -- splitting
copies that straddle it.

Also gives DRIVERS_VHOST a prompt; it was promptless and so unselectable
without a driver forcing it.

Verified on t3-gem-o1 against an unmodified Linux virtio_net: eth0 registers,
ifup brings it to RUNNING, and the peer pings it 5/5 at 0.27 ms and 60/60 with
0% loss.

---help---
Framework for implementing the DEVICE side of virtio links
(the peer's driver uses us as the device, e.g. a remoteproc
master like Linux). rptun registers device-role vdevs from the
resource table through this bus; without it such vdevs are
rejected with -ENODEV.

---help---
Device-role virtio-net: expose this side as a network card to a
peer processor running a standard virtio-net driver (e.g. Linux
via remoteproc), providing a NuttX ethN interface.
config DRIVERS_VHOST_NET_MACADDR
hex "vhost-net MAC address"
default 0x025433000001
depends on DRIVERS_VHOST_NET
---help---
No virtio-net features are negotiated on this link, so there is
no MAC config space to read; this fixed, software-assigned,
locally administered address is presented to the network stack
instead.
config DRIVERS_VHOST_RPMSG
bool "Virtual Host Rpmsg Device Support"
default n
