[RFC PATCH 1/5] vsock/virtio: Extend virtio-vsock spec with an "order" field

From: Xuewei Niu
Date: Fri May 17 2024 - 10:47:06 EST


The "order" field determines the location of the device in the linked list,
the device with CID 4, having a smallest order, is in the first place, and
so forth.

Rules:

* It doesn’t have to be continuous;
* It cannot exist conflicts;
* It is optional for the mode of a single device, but is required for the
mode of multiple devices.
