Netlink based lifecycle management could be implemented for vDPA
simulator as well.

This is just begging for a netlink based approach.

Certainly netlink driven removal should be an agreeable standard for
all devices, I think.

Well, I think Parav had some proposals during the discussion of mdev
approach. But I'm not sure if he had any RFC codes for me to integrate it
into vdpasim.

Or do you want me to propose the netlink API? If yes, would you prefer to a
new virtio dedicated one or be a subset of devlink?

Well, lets see what feed back Parav has

Hi Parav:

Do you have any update on this? If it still require sometime, I will 
post V2 that sticks to sysfs based API.

Thanks
