Subject: [PATCH v3] virtio: Add missing documentation for structure fields

Add missing documentation for the vqs_list_lock field of struct virtio_device,
and the validate field of struct virtio_driver.

./scripts/kernel-doc says:

 .../virtio.h:131: warning: Function parameter or member 'vqs_list_lock' not described in 'virtio_device'
 .../virtio.h:192: warning: Function parameter or member 'validate' not described in 'virtio_driver'
 2 warnings as Errors

No functional changes intended.

Changes in v3:
- As suggested by Stefano Garzarella
  + Drop inline comment for @vqs_list_lock which is now covered by Kdoc
  + Add "Returns 0 or -errno." to @validate Kdoc
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230510-virtio-kdoc-v2-1-1c5a20eb4cfe@kernel.org

Changes in v2:
- As suggested by Michael S. Tsirkin
  + @validate is not called on probe
  + @validate does validates config space
  + embarrassingly, validate was misspelt
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230510-virtio-kdoc-v1-1-d2b1824a9a2b@kernel.org
