But in board_init() in qemu-arm.c we already call virtio_init(). If that is not
working correctly, there is a bug that should be fixed instead.
Maybe the problem is that PCI bus has not been scanned at the time of
that virtio_init() call (so everything would work correctly with virtio-mmio
but virtio-pci is broken)?
