Typically don't want those "-", either use some sort of single word or
other attributes to have "_"

This will of course have ramifications throughout the code. I'll only
mention it here though.

Since you're not using/allowing "default", then the comparison should be
<= 0

yes, there are some others that are not correct it seems.

This would be use of def->deflate != VIR_TRISTATE_SWITCH_ABSENT

The 'deflate' isn't required - see other examples.

Looks OK otherwise.
