Thanks for the reminder.  Apologies that this slipped through :(

It's crude, but it works.  Applied.

If this happens again, do we want a "__virtio_device_disable" which
stops any interrupts from being delivered?  That would make this neater,
though the implementation might be a bit nasty.

Thanks,
