Yes, I assume that will pass at the next meeting, then we can extend
it.  It's actually hard to do in a meaningful way.  Here's my attempt:

\item[le16, le32, le64] An unsigend integer of the specified length in bits,
in little-endian byte order.  (Those implementing legacy compatibility
should be aware that most little-endian fields were native-endian in
earlier drafts: see \ref{sec:Basic Facilities of a Virtio Device /
Feature Bits / Legacy Interface: A Note on transitions from earlier
drafts}).

Thoughts?
Rusty.
