The VirtIO specification defines many types of devices with different
purposes, and it also defines 3 possible transport mediums where devices
could be connected to the host machine.
We only care about the PCIe transport, but this commit puts the actual
foundations for supporting the lean MMIO transport too in the future.
To ensure things are kept abstracted but still functional, the VirtIO
transport code is responsible for what is deemed as related to an actual
transport type - allocation of interrupt handlers and tinkering with low
level transport-related registers, etc.
