Just a basic concern. The new stuff looks ok.
If you follow what current upstream virtio is doing, it should be safe.
See drivers/net/virtio/virtio_net.c, looks like more is needed?
Do you call ethtool_validate_speed() and ethtool_validate_duplex()?
Also, in virtio the driver does stop/wakeup of tx queues on carrier change.
