[virtio-comment] [PATCH v5 2/5] pci: Define id field

["Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)" <dgilbert@redhat.com>]

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dgilbert@redhat.com>

For the virtio-fs device we require multiple large shared memory
regions.  Differentiate these by an 'id' field in the base capability.
