virtio wants to write bitwise types to userspace using put_user.
At the moment this triggers sparse errors, since the value is passed
through an integer.
For example:
__le32 __user *p;
__le32 x;
put_user(x, p);
is safe, but currently triggers a sparse warning.
Fix that up using __force.
Note: this does not suppress any useful sparse checks since caller
assigns x to typeof(*p), which in turn forces all the necessary type
checks.

commit 8b38694a2d
vhost/net: virtio 1.0 byte swap
had this chunk:
- heads[headcount - 1].len += datalen;
+ heads[headcount - 1].len = cpu_to_vhost32(vq, len - datalen);
This adds datalen with the wrong sign, causing guest panics.

The reason we defer kfree until release function is because it's a
general rule for kobjects: kfree of the reference counter itself is only
legal in the release function.
Previous patch didn't make this clear, document this in code.

A struct device which has just been unregistered can live on past the
point at which a driver decides to drop it's initial reference to the
kobject gained on allocation.
This implies that when releasing a virtio device, we can't free a struct
virtio_device until the underlying struct device has been released,
which might not happen immediately on device_unregister().
Unfortunately, this is exactly what virtio pci does:
it has an empty release callback, and frees memory immediately
after unregistering the device.
This causes an easy to reproduce crash if CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE
it enabled.
To fix, free the memory only once we know the device is gone in the release
callback.

It turns out we need to add device-specific code
in release callback. Move it to virtio_pci_legacy.c.
