Virtio console for use with hypervisors.

Also serves as a general-purpose serial device for data transfer between the guest and host. Character devices at /dev/vportNpn will be created when corresponding ports are found, where N is the device number and n is the port number within that device. If specified by the host, a sysfs attribute called 'name' will be populated with a name for the port which can be used by udev scripts to create a symlink to the device.
