(Changes:
- renamed sync to kick as Dor suggested
- added new_vq and free_vq hooks to create virtqueues
- define a simple virtio driver, which uses PCI ids
- provide register/unregister_virtio_driver hooks)
This attempts to implement a "virtual I/O" layer which should allow
common drivers to be efficiently used across most virtual I/O
mechanisms. It will no-doubt need further enhancement.
The virtio drivers add and get I/O buffers; as the buffers are consumed
the driver "interrupt" callbacks are invoked.
It also provides driver register and unregister hooks, which are
simply overridden at run time (eg. for a guest kernel which supports
KVM paravirt and lguest).
