This is based-on [1], which adds MSI-X support to virtio-balloon-pci,
but can be applied independently.

Turns out it is fairly easy to get virtio-mem-pci running on s390x. We
only have to add MSI-X support to virtio-mem-pci, and wire-up the
(un)plugging in the machine.

Tried some simple stuff (hotplug/hotunplug/resize/reboot), and all seems
to be working as expected.

The kernel in the VM needs both, CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI and CONFIG_VIRTIO_MEM
for it to work.
