Do you spot any other places where we may need to care about concurrent
processing (like for the ->config area in the previous patch)?
It is hard to tell, because:
* Synchronization external to the transport could make things work
out just fine.
* virtio_config_ops does not document these requirements if any.
* So it's up to the devices to use the stuff without shooting
themselves in the foot.
* virtio-pci does not seem to do more to avoid such problems that
we do.
Back then when learning vritio-ccw I did ask myself such questions
and based on vrito-pci and I was like looks similar, should be
good enough.
Yep, I agree. If there's nothing obvious, I think we should just leave
it as it is now.
