Tetsuya,

What do you mean by "differed"? Do you mean "delayed"?

Per my understanding, it's a bit late for v2.2 (even at few weeks
before). On the other hand, I'm still waiting for comments from
Huawei, for there are still one or two issues need more discussion.

I had sent a patch (which is just applied by Thomas) for reserving
some spaces for both virtio_net and vhost_virtqueue structure, so
it will not break anything if you simply add few more fields :)
