For the record, I tested the following setup with Windows Server 2019 in QEMU
(-device vmxnet3) before submitting the patch:

[ping     ]           [                     ]           [     ping]
[OS       ]           [    dpdk-skeleton    ]           [       OS]
[virtio---]--sockets--[---vmxnet3 vmxnet3---]--sockets--[---virtio]
[Debian VM]           [     Windows VM      ]           [Debian VM]

Debian VMs successfully ping'd each other with Windows forwarding.
