Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Rename queue index to queue number


1. Currently, virtqueue is identified between driver and device
interchangeably using either number of index terminology.

2. Between PCI and MMIO transport the queue size (depth) is
defined as queue_size and QueueNum respectively.

To avoid confusion and to have consistency, unify them to use as Number.

Solution:
Use virtqueue number description, and rename MMIO register as QueueSize.

Patch summary:
patch-1 renames index to number for pci transport
patch-2 renames mmio register from Num to Size
patch-3 renames index to number for mmio transport

Please review.
This series fixes the issue [1].

Cornelia:
I was not sure about ccw for vq_config_block and vq_info_block structures
index field refers to the queue number or not.
Can you please clarify?

If it vqn, I will send v1 by replacing index to vqn to be
consistent with other part of the spec which also uses vqn.

Parav Pandit (3):
  transport-pci: Refer to the vq by its number
  transport-mmio: Rename QueueNum register
  transport-mmio: Refer to the vq by its number
