Technically, you're right. In practice, everything looks like this:
I/O messages are added to the virtqueue either at the start of the
substream or in the interrupt handler (and only as long as .xfer_enabled
is true). In general, this means that the .msg_count can only be
incremented in the interrupt handler. As soon as the substream stops,
the .xfer_enabled becomes false and the .msg_count no longer increases.
This means that the .msg_count was either already 0, or we need to wait
for it to become 0.

Yeah, that's actually a bug. We haven't hit a timeout on that control path.

Hard to tell. But there may be some bug. In general, I try to adhere to
the rule that if an array element is referenced by index, it is better
to check the index value first.

I thought the reverse logic was better. This message asks the device to
set a specific set of parameters. And if the device returned an error
for some reason, then there is no point in allocating memory.

Actually, you made a good point here. I didn't know, that it is possible
to disable atomic mode for that callback. But, apparently, it is possible.
And virtio pcm definetly is nonatomic. I need to redo this code, thanks!

There are two kinds of messages here: control messages and I/O. Functions
for sending control message acquire and release the control virtqueue
spinlock on their own. But we cannot do the same for I/O messages, since
virtsnd_pcm_msg_send is also called from the interrupt handler, which is
already grabbing the lock for the I/O virtqueue.
