This advice is going to be inappropriate for the majortiy of guests.

Remove this clang-format stuff.

In what way is one supposed to compare with the i2c driver?  What
happens if the I2C driver changes?  It would be better to ensure that
the code can be read and understood as a standalone thing.

If the spec just copied the Linux terminology it'd have few issues :(

The virtio spec for cs_change is *not* what the Linux cs_change field
does, this will not do the right thing.
