Didn't have the time to finish the patch today, but just to clarify,
we can apply something like the below on top of my patch,
and then config_len can be checked to see whether the new fields
like alignment are available.

We probably can make the alignment smaller and save some memory -
the default value could set the default alignment.

Ring size, naturally, can just be made writeable - BIOS can put a
small value there, but linux guest would just use the defaults
so no need for any code changes at all.

As a bonus, the capability length is verified to be large enough.
The change's pretty small, isn't it?
