Commit 9b3a35ec82 ("virtio: verify that legacy support is not accidentally
on") added a check that returns an error if legacy support is on, but the
device is not legacy.

Unfortunately some devices were wrongly declared legacy even if they
were not (e.g vhost-vsock).

To avoid migration issues, we disable this error for machine types < 5.1,
but we print a warning.

Wrong Cornelia's e-mail address, I sent a v2!
