<bikeshed>Maybe call this the vpci_name instead? It's not really a
prefix in the way I would usually use the term, but rather a type name
with a possible suffix tacked onto it.</bikeshed>

<bikeshed>I'd formulate this rather as "x implements/has something, y
and z do not", as the code actually does that (and does not just intend

Ditch the _0? I don't expect this to change the name when virtio 1.1
arrives.

After a quick look, this seems fine; have not actually tried to run it
yet.
