>   Add VMCI (Virtual Machine Communication Interface) driver
>   
>   In a virtual machine, VMCI is exposed as a regular PCI device. The primary
>   communication mechanisms supported are a point-to-point bidirectional
>   transport based on a pair of memory-mapped queues, and asynchronous
>   notifications in the form of datagrams and doorbells. These features are
>   available to kernel level components such as vSockets through the VMCI
>   kernel API. In addition to this, the VMCI kernel API provides support for
>   receiving events related to the state of the VMCI communication channels,
>   and the virtual machine itself.
