2013-09-30virtqueue: flexible layout, size, alignmentmstsirkin
Transports can now lay out available/used/descriptor regions in a flexible way. This is useful for embedded systems to save memory, and for large systems to reduce the need for physically-contigious memory. However, this does not add a way to actually program this in any of the transports, so it's not useful by itself, separate follow-up patches will add a way to program this for transports.

2013-09-30pci: remove requirement for revision ID to be 0mstsirkin
While spec previously required revision to be 0 exactly it turned out not to be an efficient means to disable legacy drivers - we had to resort to changing device ID instead. So let's free up this field making it available for device makers for hardware versioning. Resolves VIRTIO-22 Approved OASIS meeting 2013-09-24. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2013-09-032.5.6.6.3: add configuration change eventrusty
This adds an event for changes to LUN parameters, for example capacity. These are reported in virtio-blk via configuration changes, and we want a similar functionality in virtio-scsi too. There is no list of supported parameter changes, instead we just refer to the list of sense codes in the SCSI specification. This event will usually be serviced in one of three ways: 1) call an OS service to revalidate the disk, either always or only for some specific sense codes; 2) somehow pass the sense directly to the upper-level driver; 3) inject a TEST UNIT READY command into the upper-level device, so that the OS will see the unit attention code and react. Of course a mix of the three is also possible, depending on how the driver writer prefers to have his layering violations served.
