Well, for now the issue is whether my understanding of qemu/pci-ids.txt and the
comment in virtio_pci.c that both say that the full 0x1000 - 0x10ff range of PCI
device IDs is donated for virtio_pci devices is correct.
0x1000-0x10ff is correct.  I don't know where the 0x103f came from.  Rusty?

We decided to hedge our bets in case we broke the ABI.

AFAICT there's no reason to claim the full range until we need it.  Wake me
when device #32 is used :)
Would be good to at least include the "experiment range" in case people are making third-party virtio modules and want to play around without replacing virtio-{pci,*}.
