Subject: [PATCH v1] transport-mmio: Replace virtual queue with virtqueue


Basic facilities define the virtqueue construct for device <-> driver
communication.

PCI transport and individual devices description also refers to it as
virtqueue.

MMIO refers to it as 'virtual queue'.

Align MMIO transport description to call such object a virtqueue.

This patch is on top of [1].
