virtio_mmio: fix access width for mmio
Going over the virtio mmio code, I noticed that it doesn't correctly access modern device config values using "natural" accessors: it uses readb to get/set them byte by byte, while the virtio 1.0 spec explicitly states: 4.2.2.2 Driver Requirements: MMIO Device Register Layout ... The driver MUST only use 32 bit wide and aligned reads and writes to access the control registers described in table 4.1. For the device-specific configuration space, the driver MUST use 8 bit wide accesses for 8 bit wide fields, 16 bit wide and aligned accesses for 16 bit wide fields and 32 bit wide and aligned accesses for 32 and 64 bit wide fields. Borrow code from virtio_pci_modern to do this correctly. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
