As per the VIRTIO specification, every virtio device configuration can
be updated while the guest is running. The guest needs to be notified
when this happens, and it can be done in two different ways, depending
on the type of interrupt being used for those devices.
In case the device uses INTx, the allocated IRQ pin is shared between
queues and configuration updates. The way for the guest to differentiate
between an interrupt meant for a virtqueue or meant for a configuration
update is tied to the value of the ISR status field. This field is a
simple 32 bits bitmask where only bit 0 and 1 can be changed, the rest
is reserved.
In case the device uses MSI/MSI-X, the driver should allocate a
dedicated vector for configuration updates. This case is much simpler as
it only requires the device to send the appropriate MSI vector.
The cloud-hypervisor codebase was not supporting the update of a virtio
device configuration. This patch extends the existing VirtioInterrupt
closure to accept a type that can be Config or Queue, so that based on
this type, the closure implementation can make the right choice about
which interrupt pin or vector to trigger.

The type of interrupt_evt has changed along with the addition of an
msix_config member for the virtio device.

In order to allow virtio-pci devices to use MSI-X messages instead
of legacy pin based interrupts, this patch implements the MSI-X
support for cloud-hypervisor. The VMM code and virtio-pci bits have
been modified based on the "msix" module previously added to the pci
crate.

Copied from crosvm 107edb3e with one main modification: VirtioPciDevice
implements BusDevice.
We need this modification because it is the only way for us to be able
to add a VirtioPciDevice to the MMIO bus. Bus insertion takes a
BusDevice. The fact that VirtioPciDevice implements PciDevice which
itself implements BusDevice does not mean that Rust will automatically
downcast a VirtioPciDevice into a BusDevice.
crosvm works around that issue by having the PCI, virtio and BusDevice
implementations in the same crate.
