[PATCH v2 0/1] gpio: virtio: Fix config space reading.

Fix for Virtio GPIO Linux driver

The Virtio GPIO Linux driver reads the configuration space in a way not
conformant with the virtio specification. The hypervisor we are using is
strict in what it accepts so the current behavior causes a problem.

Builds on top of gpio/for-next, tested on Linux v6.5.7.

- Add CC: to stable as requested
- Add Fixes: in commit message as requested.
  (Problem is present from the beginning and was not introcuced later)
- Add Acked-by: from Viresh Kumar to the commit message
- No further changes to the patch itself

It's already Friday and I won't be able to run it through the autobuilders so
I won't be sending it for v6.16. I queued it for v6.17 and it will be part of
my PR early next week.

Thanks!
