Hi Liang,

I see you are learning how to send a patch. It's a good thing.
I don't know if the idea of your patch will be accepted but here are more tips
about formatting:
- You should use checkpatch.pl from kernel.org and fix the most important issues
- The commit log should be wrapped to avoid long lines
- The title is important. You didn't update it for vfio.
And there should be no point at the end of the title.
- You should use your real name in Signed-off-by.
- You should annotate each new version to show the changes

See http://dpdk.org/dev#send and 
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/SubmittingPatches

Looking at other submissions could be inspiring also.

Thanks
-- 
Thomas
