Subject: [PATCH] virtio_mmio: generation support

virtio_mmio currently lacks generation support which
makes multi-byte field access racy.
Fix by getting the value at offset 0xfc for version 2
devices. Nothing we can do for version 1, so return
generation id 0.

Pawel, you mentioned you have a working virtio 1.0
hypervisor, can you pls confirm this works correctly?
