virtio-pci: enable bus master for old guests

Browse Source 
commit cc943c36fa
    pci: Use bus master address space for delivering MSI/MSI-X messages
breaks virtio-net for rhel6.[56] x86 guests because they don't
enable bus mastering for virtio PCI devices. For the same reason,
rhel6.[56] ppc64 guests cannot boot on a virtio-blk disk anymore.

Old guests forgot to enable bus mastering, enable it automatically on
DRIVER (guests use some devices before DRIVER_OK).
