[PATCH] virtio-spec: Clarify virtio-mmio configuration space organisation

From: Pawel Moll
Date: Fri Mar 01 2013 - 07:35:06 EST


To clarify potential confusion regarding the configuration
space organisation (endianness in particular) the spec
should clearly state that it follows the PCI device behaviour.
