So just to check, if we switch virtio-mmio from an LNRO0005 ID
to a QEMUxxxx ID we aren't going to break any existing widely
shipped or deployed code, right?

If we can change the ID without breaking anything significant
then I think the QEMU ID makes more sense; but it doesn't
really gain us much beyond tidiness.

PS: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/arm64/arm-acpi.txt
uses virtio-mmio and LNRO0005 as its code example, so if
we change this then it might be nice to update the docs
as a followup.

thanks
