+VirtIO-GPU migration
+====================
+VirtIO-GPU doesn't adhere to a common virtio migration scheme. It doesn't
+support save/loading of virtio device state, instead it uses generic device
+migration management on top of the virtio core to save/load GPU state.
+Migration of virgl and rutabaga states not supported.

Sorry for confusion, but I didn't mean to add a subsection to the documentation. I intended to refer to a terminology of migration data structure named subsection, which is documented at: docs/devel/migration/main.rst

A device-specific information is not worth to describe here.
