FWIW, I've opened https://github.com/oasis-tcs/virtio-spec/issues/106
to track this.

I prepared a proposed patch to address these concerns:

Feedback will be much appreciated

Thanks,

Just to despit my 2 cents again:  I think the way this is specified
in the virtio spec is actively harmful and we should not suport it in
Linux.

If others override me we at least need to require a detailed
documentation of these fields as the virto spec does not provide it.

Please also do not add pointless over 80 character lines, and follow
the one value per sysfs file rule.
