[PULL 04/30] qapi: better document NVMe blockdev @device parameter


From: Kevin Wolf
Subject: [PULL 04/30] qapi: better document NVMe blockdev @device parameter

From: Daniel P. Berrangé <address@hidden>

Mention that this is a PCI device address & give the format it is
expected in. Also mention that it must be first unbound from any
host kernel driver.
