Well virtio legacy has a long history of documenting existing hacks :)
But yes, VIRTIO_F_ORDER_PLATFORM has to be documented.
And we have to decide what to do about ACCESS_PLATFORM since
there's a security problem if device allows not acking it.
Two options:
- relax the rules a bit and say device will assume ACCESS_PLATFORM
  is acked anyway
- a new flag that is insecure (so useful for sec but useless for dpdk) but optional
