Two questions before I looked at code:
- can you do a writeup for the virtio spec?
  might make it easier to review.
- does linux need to support this?
  if yes we'll eventually want to take
  the header from there.
  maybe split out guest/host ABI?
  also might be a good idea to make style there
  linux-compliant (e.g. no typedefs, add typedefs
  in another header).
