virtio: console: Add a __send_control_msg() that can send messages without a valid port
We will introduce control messages that operate on the device as a whole rather than just ports. Make send_control_msg() a wrapper around __send_control_msg() which does not need a valid port. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
