[PATCH v2 RFC 1/3] virtio: add notify() callback to virtio_driver

[Heinz Graalfs <graalfs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Add an optional notify() callback to virtio_driver. A backend
driver can provide this callback to perform actions for a lost
device.

notify() event values are inherited from virtio_ccw's notify()
callback. We might want to support even more of them lateron.

notify() return values are defined in include/linux/notifier.h.
