The user-space daemon and tgt kernel module need bi-directional
kernel/user high-performance interface, however, mainline provides no
standard interface like that.
This patch adds shared memory interface between kernel and user spaces
like some other drivers do by using own character device. The
user-space daemon and tgt kernel module creates shared memory via mmap
and use it like ring buffer. poll (kernel to user) and write (user to
kernel) system calls are used for notification.
