  Each vhost-user message handling function will return an int result
which is described in the new enum vh_result: error, OK and reply.
All functions will now have two arguments, virtio_net double pointer
and VhostUserMsg pointer.

Adding Ilya in cc, who has submitted a patch that seems to be
complementary with yours: http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/44168/

Other than that, it looks good to me:
