virtio: remove virtio-pci root device
We sometimes need to map between the virtio device and the given pci device. One such use is OS installer that gets the boot pci device from BIOS and needs to find the relevant block device. Since it can't, installation fails. Instead of creating a top-level devices/virtio-pci directory, create each device under the corresponding pci device node. Symlinks to all virtio-pci devices can be found under the pci driver link in bus/pci/drivers/virtio-pci/devices, and all virtio devices under drivers/bus/virtio/devices.
