For generic virtio devices, where we don't need to add compatible or other special DT properties, the type field is set to "virtio,device".
But this misses the case where the user sets the type with a valid virtio device id as well, like "virtio,device1a" for file system device. The complete list of virtio device ids is mentioned here:
https://docs.oasis-open.org/virtio/virtio/v1.2/cs01/virtio-v1.2-cs01.html#x1...
Update documentation to support that as well.
