Rusty Russell 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.

Rusty Russell 31610434bc Virtio console driver
This is an hvc-based virtio console driver.  It's suboptimal becuase
hvc expects to have raw access to interrupts and virtio doesn't assume
that, so it currently polls.

There are two solutions: expose hvc's "kick" interface, or wean off hvc.
