Reading through this, you want a way to say "there's no device there"
for virtio-mmio?
I think this is a bus-specific problem.
PCI has a different, standard way to do this (report 0xfffffffff as both
device and vendor ID).
If you want to use subsystem ID for this in virtio-mmio, that's
fine. But I think that we don't need a "do nothing device" for this -
just reserve some IDs (declare them invalid) and bus will then be
able to define behaviour as it sees fit.
