I think Evgeny's virtio mmio patches change all this.  In the recent
virtio-pci thread we were discussing how the virtio transport (mmio,
pci) and virtio devices (net, blk, etc) fit together.  The email
thread is "Virtio-pci issues" from Evgeny Voevodin
<address@hidden>.

It probably makes sense to first merge Evgeny's virtio refactoring and
then ensure it's nicely mapped to QOM.
