This is needed for supporting multiple mount points.

We can find out the device names to be used with mount by checking

/sys/devices/virtio-pci/virtio*/device file

if the device file have value 9 then the specific virtio device can
be used for mounting.

ex:
 #cat /sys/devices/virtio-pci/virtio1/device
 9

now we can mount using
# mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio virtio1  /mnt/
