According to specification [1], "For the device-specific configuration space, the driver MUST use 8 bit wide accesses for 8 bit wide fields, 16 bit wide and aligned accesses for 16 bit wide fields and 32 bit wide and aligned accesses for 32 and 64 bit wide fields.". Current version of the configuration structure has non-aligned 16bit fields. This patch adds a second, aligned version of the configuration structure and a new feature bit indicating that this version is being used. [1] https://docs.oasis-open.org/virtio/virtio/v1.1/virtio-v1.1.pdf Changes in v4: v3 was corrupted by our smtp server. Changes in v3: v2 had been sent from the wrong address, fixed. Changes in v2: The first version of this patch just changed the configuration structure in uapi/linux/virtio_bt.h This can not be done, because it will break the userspace, so the second version offers a less radical approach - it introduces a new feature bit and a new configuration structure that both the device and the driver will use if this bit is negotiated.
