2014-03-13VIRTIO-60: avoid vring and VIRTIO_RING.rusty
These are never introduced, so use simpler names: virtq* for structures and VIRTIO_ for features. I added two notes about the old names, for helping people coming from the old spec.

Change accepted on VIRTIO TC Meeting, 3 December 2013 this version replaces it, so it's a non normative reference.

2013-12-02Terminology: Device and driver, not host and guest.rusty
We've mixed both together, whereas from a spec-reader point of view, "driver" and "device" is probably clearer. CCW part incorporated: Switch the parts of the virtio-ccw specification that did not already to device/driver instead of guest/host. For more general discussions, host/guest is kept (like when talking about guest<->host notifications in general). This should make things more consistent.

2013-11-25virtio: add latex templates from CMISmstsirkin
I imported latex templates from the CMIS specifications and changed s/CMIS/VIRTIO/ everywhere. The result is very close to one produced by exporting from the ODF we were supplied, with the exception of the TOC formatting, where section numbers are in blue instead of black, and major sections don't have dots leading to page numbers. I'm guessing this isn't very important, someone with more latex knowledge can try to figure this out. Generating html doesn't actually work for me. It doesn't work for me for CMIS either, so it's probably just an issue with my local latex setup. I'm not sure we need html output at all. Signed-off-by: Michael S.
