Why does .xfer_enabled have to be atomic? It only takes two values - 0 and
1, I don't see any incrementing, or test-and-set type operations or
anything similar. Also I don't see .xfer_enabled being set to 1 anywhere
in this patch, presumably that happens in one of later patches.

If I understand correctly, messages are sent to the back-end driver in
this specific order, so this is a part of the ABI, isn't it? Is it also a
part of the spec? If so this should be defined in your ABI header?

Why do you need to initialise a table of 3 meddages if you then initialise
each of them separately immediately below?

Is this actually possible? That would mean a data corruption or a bug in
the driver, right? In either case it can be NULL or 1 or any other invalid
value, so checking for NULL doesn't seem to help a lot?

.msg_count is also accessed in virtsnd_pcm_msg_complete() which is why
presumably you use atomic access. But here you already increment the count
before you even begin adding the message to the virtqueue. So if
virtsnd_pcm_msg_complete() preempts you here the .msg_count will be
inconsistent? Possibly you need to protect both operations together:
incrementing the counter and adding messages to queues.

Also unclear why this has to be atomic, especially taking into account
that it's only accessed in "interrupt context."
