virtio-pci: use zero length mmio eventfd for 1.0 notification cap when possible
We use data match eventfd for 1.0 notification currently. This could
be slow since software decoding is needed for mmio exit. To speed this
up, we can switch to use zero length mmio eventfd for 1.0 notification
since we can examine the queue index directly from the writing
address. KVM kernel module can utilize this by registering it to fast
mmio bus which could be as fast as pio on ept capable machine when
fast mmio is supported by host kernel.
Lots of improvements were seen on a ept capable machine:
