Subject: [PATCH] virtio-pci: implement VIRTIO_F_RING_STATE


This patch is a follow up for the virtqueue state synchronization
series to implement VIRTIO_F_RING_STATE via a dedicated capability for
PCI transport.

With the help of the STOP status bit, the virtqueue state
synchronization for PCI should be self contained.
