virtio-ccw: introduce revisions

+2.3.3.2.1. Setting the Virtio Revision
+--------------------------------------
+
+CCW_CMD_SET_VIRTIO_REV is issued by the driver to set the revision of
+the virtio-ccw transport it intends to drive the device with. It uses the
+following communication structure:
+
+struct virtio_rev_info {
+ __u16 revision;
+ __u16 length;
+ __u8 data[];
+};
+
+revision contains the desired revision id, length the length of the
+data portion and data revision-dependent additional desired options.
+
+The following values are supported:
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------
+| revision | length | data | remarks |
+|----------|--------|-----------|--------------------------------|
+| 0 | 0 | <empty> | legacy interface; transitional |
+| | | | devices only |
+|----------|--------|-----------|--------------------------------|
+| 1 | 0 | <empty> | Virtio 1.0 |
+|----------|--------|-----------|--------------------------------|
+| 2-n | | | reserved for later revisions |
+------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Note that a change in the virtio standard does not neccessarily
+correspond to a change in the virtio-ccw revision.
+
+A device must post a unit check with command reject for any revision
+it does not support. For any invalid combination of revision, length
+and data, it must post a unit check with command reject as well. A
+non-transitional device must reject revision id 0.
+
+A driver should start with trying to set the highest revision it
+supports and continue with lower revisions if it gets a command reject.
+
+A driver must not issue any other virtio-ccw specific channel commands
+prior to setting the revision.
+
+A device must answer with command reject to any virtio-ccw specific
+channel command that is not contained in the revision selected by the
+driver.
+
+After a revision has been successfully selected by the driver, it
+must not attempt to select a different revision. A device must answer
+to any such attempt with a command reject.
+
+A device must treat the revision as unset from the time the associated
+subchannel has been enabled until a revision has been successfully set
+by the driver. This implies that revisions are not persistent across
+disabling and enabling of the associated subchannel.
+
+2.3.3.2.1.1. Legacy Interfaces: A Note on Setting the Virtio Revision
+---------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+A legacy device will not support the CCW_CMD_SET_VIRTIO_REV and answer
+with a command reject. A non-transitional driver must stop trying to
+operate this device in that case. A transitional driver must operate
+the device as if it had been able to set revision 0.
+
+A legacy driver will not issue the CCW_CMD_SET_VIRTIO_REV prior to
+issueing other virtio-ccw specific channel commands. A non-transitional
+device therefore must answer any such attempts with a command reject.
+A transitional device must assume in this case that the driver is a
+legacy driver and continue as if the driver selected revision 0. This
+implies that the device must reject any command not valid for revision
+0, including a subsequent CCW_CMD_SET_VIRTIO_REV.
