I think the Author who write the codewait, that was not you?
maybe want to name the control queue to
'virtioX-control', but it never worked, we can see the name still be
'virtioX-config' in /proc/interrupts, for example
43: 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 PCI-MSI-edge virtio0-config
44: 64 0 0 0 0 0
1845 0 PCI-MSI-edge virtio0-input.0
45: 1 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 PCI-MSI-edge virtio0-output.0
Because in function vp_request_msix_vectors, it just allocate 'xxxx-config' to
every virtio devices, even the virtio device do not need it. in /proc/
interrupts, we can see that each virtio device's first interrupt always named
'virtioX-config'.
So I think it's better to not explicitly give the "control" here, it's
useless...

I don't think that's right. config is the config interrupt.
