The issue is that there's not clear definition in the spec about how 
device is expected to behave when it is being reset. E.g can the device 
still modify virtqueue in this case? If yes, stall the host is much more 
safe than simply ignore it.

In another way, I wonder whether we can do transport level reset (e.g 
PCI) in this case.

So as mentioned in previous reply, this driver has been used for real 
virtio hardware for many years. One well known example is the Ali Cloud 
ECS bare metal instance.
