We also have virtio-ccw there already. (I'm not sure whether the
"Devices" section is actually supposed to be ordered alphabetically; if
it is, I think it would need some reordering effort.)

For clarity, we could still add an S390 prefix here...

This one was hard to fit, because it spans tcg and kvm, so we should
probably keep it here.

These two could go to the devices section.

I'd rather keep this one here, as it contains not only the console
devices, but also the whole infrastructure. (Hmm, maybe call this
"devices and infrastructure"? </bikeshed>)

Yeah, this was simple cut-and-paste :)

(This section could also move.)

Thanks!

Any objections if I move the sections as outlined above and keep the
acks I already have?
