[virtio] [PATCH 4/6] pci: map common notifications terminology to PCI

[Halil Pasic <pasic@linux.ibm.com>]

The various notifications are introduced and specified in the common
(i.e. transport agnostic) portion of this specification. How
notifications are realised for a given transport is something each
transport has to specify.

Let's make the relationship between the PCI terms and the common
terms more obvious.
