Do you mean a legacy virtio device? I don't see why
you would want to support pre-1.0 mode.
If you drop that, you can drop all cpu_to_virtio things
and just use __le accessors.

I'd add named fields instead of an array here, vq[0]
vq[1] all over the place is hard to read.

let's avoid macros for now pls. In fact, I would just open-code this
in to_virtio_type below. We can always change our minds later if
lots of types are added.

This assigns u16 to __virtio type, sparse will warn
if you enable endian-ness checks.
Pls fix that and generally, please make sure this is
clean from sparse warnings.

Does this block userspace in an uninterruptible wait if
hardware is slow? That's not nice.
