But AFAICT you never *read* dev->config_changed.

You unconditionally trigger a config_changed event in
virtio_config_enable().  That's a bit weird, but probably OK.

How about the following change (on top of your patch).  I
think the renaming is clearer, and note the added if() test in
virtio_config_enable().

If you approve, I'll fold it in.

Cheers,
Rusty.

Hi Rusty,
I'm okay with both changes.
You can fold it in if you prefer, or just make it a patch on top.
