Same as any virtio UAPI change, this has to go through the virtio TC.
In particular I don't think gating a new config field on
an existing feature flag is a good idea.
Did you mean that the polling should be based on a new feature like
"VIRTIO_BLK_F_POLL" and be added at the end of features_legacy[]
and features[]? If then, I will add the new feture flag and resend it.

Isn't there a way in the SPEC today to create a queue without interrupt vector ?
