First of all, virtio-blk is an alias for virtio-blk-pci. I should not
have used it as it's likely confusing, but anyway "qemu-kvm -device
virtio-blk-pci,?" tells you all the options that a virtio-blk(-pci)
device can have.
The idea then is that when you want to express extra options, you cannot
use simply "-drive if=virtio", and qdev-device-use.txt then hints about
how to convert -drive if=virtio" to "-drive if=none" + "-device virtio-blk".
