Re: [PATCH v2 0/3] vhost-vsock: force virtio version 1

Hi Michael,
if you haven't queued the series, maybe I can send a v3 to solve
migration issues, otherwise I can send a new series.

I would like to force virtio 1 only on machine types newer than 5.0,
otherwise the migration will fail.

@Cornelia, @David, do you think it makes sense?

Thanks,
Stefano
