The valid_transition() routine for the VmState enum essentially

In order to pause a VM, we signal all the vCPU threads to get them out
of vmx non-root. Once out, the vCPU thread will check for a an atomic
pause boolean. If it's set to true, then the thread will park until
being resumed.

Because the L2 VM running in the VFIO integration test is actually
running as L3 (since the CI runs in a VM), it can take quite some
time for this VM to boot.
The way to solve this issue is to extend the sleep time before to try
communicating with the L2 VM, but also to speed up the boot time by
using virtio-console instead of serial. We suspect the use of serial,
implying PIO VM exits for each character on the serial port is quite
expensive compared to the paravirtualized console.

Azure virtual machines can have private IPs in the 172.16.x.x range,

Now that our custom kernel includes all the patches for the full support
of virtio-iommu, we can go one step further by attaching the virtio-net
device to the virtual IOMMU and use it to SSH some commands validating
both disks and the network card are isolated into their own IOMMU group.

In order to support nested virtualization and nested device passthrough
from our CI tests, we need some extra kernel configuration options to be
enabled.
CONFIG_KVM and CONFIG_VIRTUALIZATION for nested virtualization.
CONFIG_VFIO for nested device passthrough.
CONFIG_VIRTIO_IOMMU and CONFIG_ACPI_IORT for virtio-iommu support.
With all these new options applied, we can leverage virtio-iommu to
attach some VFIO devices to it and pass them through a second layer of
virtualization.

This commit is the glue between the virtio-pci devices attached to the
vIOMMU, and the IORT ACPI table exposing them to the guest as sitting
behind this vIOMMU.
An important thing is the trait implementation provided to the virtio
vrings for each device attached to the vIOMMU, as they need to perform
proper address translation before they can access the buffers.

Having the virtual IOMMU created with --iommu is one thing, but we also
need a way to decide if a virtio-vsock device should be attached to this
virtual IOMMU or not. That's why we introduce an extra option "iommu"
with the value "on" or "off". By default, the device is not attached,
which means "iommu=off".

The virtual IOMMU exposed through virtio-iommu device has a dependency
on ACPI. It needs to expose the device ID of the virtio-iommu device,
and all the other devices attached to this virtual IOMMU. The IDs are
expressed from a PCI bus perspective, based on segment, bus, device and
function.
The guest relies on the topology description provided by the IORT table
to attach devices to the virtio-iommu device.
