drivers/virtio/virtio_pci.c: fix error return code

Convert a nonnegative error return code to a negative one, as returned
elsewhere in the function.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
(
if@p1 (\(ret < 0\|ret != 0\))
 { ... return ret; }
|
ret@p1 = 0
)
... when != ret = e1
    when != &ret
*if(...)
{
  ... when != ret = e2
      when forall
 return ret;
}
// </smpl>

virtio: don't crash when device is buggy

Because of a sanity check in virtio_dev_remove, a buggy device can crash
kernel.  And in case of rproc it's userspace so it's not a good idea.
We are unloading a driver so how bad can it be?
Be less aggressive in handling this error: if it's a driver bug,
warning once should be enough.

virtio: add help to CONFIG_VIRTIO option.

Trying to enable a virtio driver (eg CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK) is painful
because it depends on CONFIG_VIRTIO.  CONFIG_VIRTIO doesn't tell you
how to turn it on (it's selected from anything which provides a virtio
bus).

This patch at least adds some documentation, visible in menuconfig, as
a hint.

virtio: support reserved vqs

virtio network device multiqueue support reserves
vq 3 for future use (useful both for future extensions and to make it
pretty - this way receive vqs have even and transmit - odd numbers).
Make it possible to skip initialization for
specific vq numbers by specifying NULL for name.
Document this usage as well as (existing) NULL callback.

Drivers using this not coded up yet, so I simply tested
with virtio-pci and verified that this patch does
not break existing drivers.

virtio: introduce an API to set affinity for a virtqueue

Sometimes, virtio device need to configure irq affinity hint to maximize the
performance. Instead of just exposing the irq of a virtqueue, this patch
introduce an API to set the affinity for a virtqueue.

The api is best-effort, the affinity hint may not be set as expected due to
platform support, irq sharing or irq type. Currently, only pci method were
implemented and we set the affinity according to:

- if device uses INTX, we just ignore the request
- if device has per vq vector, we force the affinity hint
- if the virtqueues share MSI, make the affinity OR over all affinities
  requested
