From: Xie Yongji <xieyon...@baidu.com> We introduced two flags "started" and "start_on_kick" to indicate virtio device's state before. But there still are some problems with them. So we try to fixup them in this patchset.
The patch 1 fixes a regression bug that old guest is not able to boot with vhost-user-blk device. The patch 2,3,4 fix some problems with "started" and "start_on_kick" flag. The patch 5 introduces a "use-started" property to avoid a migration issue under Greg Kurz's suggestion [1].
