Maybe this should also constrain the page size to be a power of 2?

This comment should probably clarify that the page_size field is only
valid when cfg_type is VIRTIO_PCI_CAP_SHARED_MEMORY_CFG, assuming
that's the case. Or should the device be expected to provide the
page_size for all capabilities regardless of type?

It seems like the name should also ideally make it clearer that this
is page_size/4096 rather than the actual page size to avoid confusing
device implementers.
