I think it does go in a common initialization. Virtqueues are also
discovered in a transport specific way, and same goes for reading/writing config.
So I would add somethng to
"7. Perform device-specific setup, including discovery of virtqueues for
the device, optional per-bus setup, reading and possibly writing the
device’s virtio configuration space, and population of virtqueues." in
subsection 3.1.1.
