virtio: core support for config generation
virtio 1.0 spec says: Drivers MUST NOT assume reads from fields greater than 32 bits wide are atomic, nor are reads from multiple fields: drivers SHOULD read device configuration space fields like so: u32 before, after; do { before = get_config_generation(device); // read config entry/entries. after = get_config_generation(device); } while (after != before); Do exactly this, for transports that support it.
