674bfc23c5 virtio: clarify that ABI is usable by any implementations
We want others to implement and use virtio, so it makes sense to BSD
license the non-__KERNEL__ parts of the headers to make this crystal
clear.

55a7c06604 virtio: Use PCI revision field to indicate virtio PCI ABI version
As Avi pointed out, as we continue to massage the virtio PCI ABI, we can make
things a little more friendly to users by utilizing the PCI revision field to
indicate which version of the ABI we're using.  This is a hard ABI version
and incrementing it will cause the guest driver to break.

This is the necessary changes to virtio_pci to support this.
