Subject: [PATCH v2 00/24] virtio: config space endian-ness cleanup

Config space endian-ness is currently a mess: fields are
not tagged with the correct endian-ness so it's easy
to make mistakes like instanciating config space in
native endian-ness.

The following patches adding sparse tagging are currently in my tree.
Lightly tested.

As a follow-up, I plan to add new APIs that handle modern config space
in a more efficient way (bypassing the version check).

That is still TBD.

I also start with a version using gcc extensions, then switch
to _Generic. This is helpful for backports to older kernels/older
distros: _Generic patch can just be skipped.

Michael S. Tsirkin (24):
  virtio_balloon: fix sparse warning
  virtio_ring: sparse warning fixup
  virtio: allow __virtioXX, __leXX in config space
  virtio_9p: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_balloon: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_blk: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_console: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_crypto: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_fs: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_gpu: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_input: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_iommu: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_mem: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_net: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_pmem: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_scsi: correct tags for config space fields
  virtio_config: disallow native type fields
  mlxbf-tmfifo: sparse tags for config access
  vdpa: make sure set_features in invoked for legacy
  vhost/vdpa: switch to new helpers
  virtio_vdpa: legacy features handling
  vdpa_sim: fix endian-ness of config space
  virtio_config: cread/write cleanup
  virtio_config: rewrite using _Generic
