Reserve memory ranges and interrupt lines for an externally
emulated PCI controller (e.g by QEMU) dedicated to hosting
Virtio devices and potentially other emulated devices.

Why is this specific to virtio PCI? However, I am not entirely convinced
we should have a second PCI hostbridge exposed to the guest for a few
reasons:
1. This require to reserve yet another range in the address space
(could be solved with a more dynamic layout)
2. From your instructions, the guest needs to explicitly do a PCI rescan.
So rather than having a second hostbridge, have you considered to extend
the existing hostbridge (implemented in Xen) to support a mix of
physical PCI device and virtual one?
Cheers,
