virtio fs has a lot of context :) I think we do need some way to
document which devices do and which don't support migration.  Maybe for
each device type where it's not defined yet, we should add text along
the lines of "Device context TBD. Devices of this type SHOULD NOT
support VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_DEV_CTX_SIZE_GET and
VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_DEV_CTX_READ commands".
