Add a flexible mechanism to specify virtio configuration layout, using pci vendor-specific capability. A separate capability is used for each of common, device specific and data-path accesses.How about posting the spec change instead of patches?We need both of course but I typically start with patches. Easier to see whether it's even possible to implement the spec without overhauling all of the code.Patches are okay for someone familiar with the code. For others, they require more effort.
Yes. It's just that I needed to convince myself that the approach is good, and that meant writing the supporting code. Since I had the code I didn't see a reason not to send it :)
