Basically on first guest access QEMU would tell kernel whether
guest is using the legacy or the modern interface.
E.g. virtio_pci_config_read/virtio_pci_config_write will call ioctl(ENABLE_LEGACY, 1)
while virtio_pci_common_read will call ioctl(ENABLE_LEGACY, 0)

Or maybe we just add GET_CONFIG_MODERN and GET_CONFIG_LEGACY and
call the correct ioctl ... there are many ways to build this API.
