Sebastien Boeuf b67e0b3dad vmm: Use virtio-blk to support booting from disk image
After the virtio-blk device support has been introduced in the
previous commit, the vmm need to rely on this new device to boot
from disk images instead of initrd built into the kernel.

In order to achieve the proper support of virtio-blk, this commit
had to handle a few things:

  - Register an ioevent fd for each virtqueue. This important to be
    notified from the virtio driver that something has been written
    on the queue.

  - Fix the retrieval of 64bits BAR address. This is needed to provide
    the right address which need to be registered as the notification
    address from the virtio driver.

  - Fix the write_bar and read_bar functions. They were both assuming
    to be provided with an address, from which they were trying to
    find the associated offset. But the reality is that the offset is
    directly provided by the Bus layer.

  - Register a new virtio-blk device as a virtio-pci device from the
    vm.rs code. When the VM is started, it expects a block device to
    be created, using this block device as the VM rootfs.
