This will likely introduce a backward compatibility issue where anyone that
has more than one vring and set their notifyids to anything else than 0xFFFFFFFF
in the resource table will see a boot failure.

A while back the openAMP group started discussions on using the configuration
space of a virtio device to enhance device discovery, with exactly this kind of
use case in mind.  I think it is the only way to move forward with this
feature, though it is a big job that requires a lot of community interactions.

Regards,
Mathieu
