Something's very wrong here. virtio PCI is 161 files?
Are you counting the whole PCI subsystem?
Sure enough:

$ find drivers/pci -name '*c' |wc -l
150

That's not reasonable, this includes a bunch of drivers that
never run on a typical hypervisor.

MMIO is also not as small as you are trying to show:

$ cloc drivers/virtio/virtio_mmio.c include/uapi/linux/virtio_mmio.h
       2 text files.
       2 unique files.                              
       0 files ignored.

I don't doubt MMIO is smaller than PCI. Of course that's because it has
no features to speak of - just this patch already doubles it's size. If
we keep doing that because we want the features then they will reach
the same size in about 4 iterations.
