This patch splits the device status field of virtio-net into ro and rw
byte. This would simplify the implementation of both host and guest
and make the layout more clean. As VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE is a rw bit,
it was moved to bit 8 (0x100).
btw. looks like there's no implementation that depends on
VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE, so the move is safe.
