Hello,

These patches rework the way ports are announced to the guests. A
control message is used to let the guest know a new port is
added. Initial port discovery and port hot-plug work via this way now.

This was done to have the host and guest port numbering in sync to
avoid surprises after several hotplug/unplug operations and
migrations.

The ability to assign a particular port number to ports is also added
so that management software can control the placement of ports.

cheers,
  Gerd
