Maybe add a device-normative statement that [admin_queue_index,
admin_queue_index + admin_queue_num) must be located after
device-specific virtqueues?
That would remind implementers that the device-specific virtqueue layout
needs to be followed and cannot be modified by the presence of
Administration Virtqueues.
