It's unclear to me if it's important, but it's obviously causing my
technical colleages some headaches and I'd hate such imprecision to
slow virtio adoption.

I've emailed this to all non-trivial contributors for approval, too.

This implements optional MSI-X support in virtio_pci.
MSI-X is used whenever the host supports at least 2 MSI-X
vectors: 1 for configuration changes and 1 for virtqueues.
Per-virtqueue vectors are allocated if enough vectors
available.

The virtio PCI devices don't depend on the guest page size.  This matters
now PowerPC virtio is gaining ground (they like 64k pages).

We want others to implement and use virtio, so it makes sense to BSD
license the non-__KERNEL__ parts of the headers to make this crystal
clear.

<title>virtio: Use PCI revision field to indicate virtio PCI ABI version</title>

As Avi pointed out, as we continue to massage the virtio PCI ABI, we can make
things a little more friendly to users by utilizing the PCI revision field to
indicate which version of the ABI we're using.  This is a hard ABI version
and incrementing it will cause the guest driver to break.

This is the necessary changes to virtio_pci to support this.

This is a PCI device that implements a transport for virtio.  It allows virtio
devices to be used by QEMU based VMMs like KVM or Xen.
