Subject: [PATCH 2/2] virtio_mmio: Restore guest page size on resume

Virtio devices might lose their state when the VMM is restarted
after a suspend to disk (hibernation) cycle. This means that the
guest page size register must be restored for the virtio_mmio legacy
interface, since otherwise the virtio queues are not functional.

This is particularly problematic for QEMU that currently still defaults
to using the legacy interface for virtio_mmio. Write the guest page
size register again in virtio_mmio_restore() to make legacy virtio_mmio
devices work correctly after hibernation.
