Define the flags and head struct for a new host request virtual
queue. Guest can get requests from host and then responds to them on
this new virtual queue.
Host can make use of this virtual queue to request the guest do some
operations, e.g. drop page cache, synchronize file system, etc.
And the hypervisor can get some of guest's runtime information
through this virtual queue too, e.g. the guest's unused page
information, which can be used for live migration optimization.
