I think this needs some fixes. See below.
Thanks.

A bit confusing: it does not send anything itself.
A better comment 'for announcing the existence of device
on the network'.

This can run in parallel with other commands. That's pretty bad -
will corrupt the cvq.
Take rtnl lock around calls to this function?

Better to drop {} around a single statement.

I think that a config change event can trigger after this point,
so cancel here won't be effective. But why do it here?
virtnet_remove not a better place? We can do it
after remove_vq_common.

The announce bit in vi->status is always clear,
so this is IMO confusing. I would do:
if (v & VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE) {
schedule
}
v &= VIRTIO_NET_S_LINK_UP;
and the rest of the logic is not necessary then.
Also, this might run extra ack announce commands after
VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE bit is clear. The spec
isn't clear on whether this is legal.
It would be very hard to fix this, so let's add a comment
stating that it's legal, and clarify the spec
in any case.

I think we really want an nrt wq here - if this triggers
multiple times there's no good reason to try and run
the ack command many times in parallel.

A config change event can trigger after this point,
so cancel here won't be effective.
Possibly, we need state like config_enable in the block
device.
Also, what exactly will happen on suspend?
As we reset, ANNOUCE bit will be clear so -
do we forget to announce? Probably not good ...

Rusty aligned the comments using tabs so let's do it here too?
A better comment 'can announce device on the network'.
