multiple errors: Non-transitional With Legacy
virtio 1.0 has two sections titled "Non-transitional Device With Legacy Driver" the first says devices SHOULD fail, the second says devices MUST fail. Clearly a mistake. Other issues: devices don't really fail - they cause drivers to fail. second section seems to be in the wrong place, and also have a section followed by subsection with no explanatory text in between, which is ugly. Finally, this text was originally ritten to handle buggy windows drivers gracefully, but later we changed device IDs so it's not really required there. Might be handy for some other buggy legacy drivers, though no such drivers are known. To fix, drop the duplicate section variant, add some explanatory text, clarify what does "same ID" mean here, and clarify that the work-around is only needed if a buggy driver is known to bind to a transitional device.
