 device address, as usual.  The old -net nic provides parameter addr
 for that, it is silently ignored when the NIC is not a PCI device.

 -net nic accepts vectors=V for all models, but it's silently ignored
 except for virtio-net-pci (model=virtio).  With -device, only devices
 that support it accept it.
