[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 21/21] vhost: iotlb: reduce iotlb read lock usage

Prior to this patch, iotlb cache's read/write lock was
read-locked at every guest IOVA to app VA translation,
i.e. at least once per packet with indirect off and twice
with indirect on.

The problem is that rte_rwlock_read_lock() makes use of atomic
operation, which is costly.

This patch introduces iotlb lock helpers, so that a full burst
can be protected with taking the lock once, which reduces the
number of atomic operations by up to 64 with indirect
descriptors.
