Subject: [PATCH v3 00/11] virtio: S4 support

Hi,

These patches add support for S4 to virtio (pci) and all drivers.

For each driver, all vqs are removed before hibernation, and then
re-created after restore.  Some driver-specific uninit and init work
is also done in the freeze and restore functions.

All the drivers in testing work fine:

* virtio-blk is used for the only disk in the VM, IO works fine before
  and after.

* virtio-console: port IO keeps working fine before and after.
  * If a port is waiting for data from the host (blocking read(2)
    call), this works fine in both the cases: host-side connection is
    available or unavailable after resume.  In case the host-side
    connection isn't available, the blocking call is terminated.  If
    it is available, the call continues to remain in blocked state
    till further data arrives.

* virtio-net: ping remains active across S4.

* virtio-balloon: Works fine before and after.  Forgets the ballooned
  value across S4.  If it's desirable to maintain the ballooned value,
  a new config option can be created to do this.

All of these tests are run in parallel.

I have some more tests lined up on similar lines above.  I'll reply
here if something breaks.

Please review and apply if appropriate,

v3:
 - Reset vqs before deleting them (Sasha Levin)
 - Flush block queue before freeze (Rusty)
 - Detach netdev before freeze (Michael S. Tsirkin)

v2:
 - fix checkpatch errors/warnings
