Ouch!

The guest is hang when boot from ubuntu iso, i bisected the code and found it is caused by:

cad55f1aed000db46dfd1b5706707f33624d8604 is the first bad commit
commit cad55f1aed000db46dfd1b5706707f33624d8604

KVM: kvm-io: support cookies

Add new functions kvm_io_bus_{read,write}_cookie() that allows users of
the kvm io infrastructure to use a cookie value to speed up lookup of a
device on an io bus.
