The current state is that 0xFF00 - 0xFFFF is the range of all virtual 
SMC-D devices. This range devides into:
- 0xFF00 - 0xFFFE is for virto-ism
- 0xFFFF is for loopback

SMC_VIRT_ISM_MAX is 0xFFFE. Or do you mean virtual devices as the whole 
group. If yes i think that this naming will be very confusing in a few 
months/years.
Maybe something like SMC_VIRTUAL_DEV_CHID_{MIN|MAX}?
