Hi Liu,
The first version of the patch was reviewed by Stephen and after he agreed I have incorporated all those changes in v2 and v3 had only the style error fixes. That is why I have put the line Reviewed by .
Still I might have some errors in filing the patch as I am new to this. Do you recommend to submit an updated version or this is fine ?

Firstly, thanks for the patch!
And I got few more style issues for you :) The first goes to the subject (commit summary):
- the prefix is "net/virtio", but not "virtio"
- a space is needed after ':'

SoB should go the end of the commit log.

The fixline is needed for bug fixing patch only. Besides that, the commit has to be an commit has been applied before.

I don't see such Reviewed-by from Stephen. I think you should not add it, unless someone has given you that, explicitly.

It's better to keep old changes, such as:
v3: correct few style errors ...
v2: ....
FYI, you might want to read others patch to get more used to the right way of making a patch.

I think it's not necessary if you defined the function before the usage.
