virtio spec 0.9.X requires DRIVER_OK to be set before VQs are used, but some drivers use VQs before probe function returns. Since DRIVER_OK is set after probe, this violates the spec. Even though under virtio 1.0 transitional devices support this behaviour, we want to make it possible for those early callers to become spec compliant and eventually support non-transitional devices. Add API for

virtio spec 0.9.X requires DRIVER_OK to be set before VQs are used, but some drivers use VQs before probe function returns. Since DRIVER_OK is set after probe, this violates the spec. Even though under virtio 1.0 transitional devices support this behaviour, we want to make it possible for those early callers to become spec compliant and eventually support non-transitional devices.

Changes from v4: rename virtio_enable_vqs_early() to virtio_device_ready() Note: Rusty requested we add a BUG_ON in the virtio_ring code. This can be done by a separate patch on top. Good for bisectability in case BUG_ON starts triggering :) Rusty, please review this, and consider for this merge window. This fixes the following virtio spec compliance issues: 1. on restore, drivers use device
