+HOW VDUSE devices reconnectoin works
+----------------
+0. Userspace APP checks if the device /dev/vduse/vduse_name exists.
+   If it does not exist, need to create the instance.
+   If it does exist, it means this is a reconnect and the program proceeds to step 3.
+
+1. Create a new VDUSE instance with ioctl(VDUSE_CREATE_DEV) on
+   /dev/vduse/control.
+
+2. When the ioctl(VDUSE_CREATE_DEV) function is called, the kernel allocates memory
+   to synchronize the reconnect information.
+
+3. Userspace App need to mmap the pages to userspace
+
+   When connecting for the first time, the userspace app must save the reconnect
+   information (struct vhost_reconnect_data) in mapped pages
+
+   If this is reconnect,If the purpose is to reconnect, the userspace application
+   must verify if the saved information is suitable for reconnection. Additionally,
+   the userspace application is required to set the "reconnected" bit in the
+   "struct vhost_reconnect_data" to "VDUSE_RECONNECT". The kernel will use this bit
+   to identify if the userspace application is reconnect.
+
+4. Start the userspace App.
+   userspace APP will call ioctl VDUSE_VQ_GET_INFO to sync the vq information.
+   Additionally, the APP must save the vq reconnect information (struct vdpa_vq_state)
+   in mapped pages while running.
+
+5. When the Userspace App exits, it is necessary to unmap all the reconnect pages.
