Core IRQ won't help in 1), the changes are limited in the virtio.

It's not the fault of hardening but the drivers. The hardening just
expose those bugs.

I'm not sure I see the difference, disable_irq() stuffs also delay the
interrupt processing until enable_irq().

I don't see a deadlock here, maybe you can show more detail on this?

And ignore the notification if vq is not kicked? It sounds like the
callback needs to be synchronized with the kick.

There's no much difference with the existing approach:
1) your proposal implicitly makes callbacks ready in virtqueue_kick()
2) my proposal explicitly makes callbacks ready via virtio_device_ready()
Both require careful auditing of all the existing drivers to make sure
no kick before DRIVER_OK.

Probably.

Yes, but consider the case of mlx5_vdpa, PCI stuff was hidden under
the auxiliary bus. And that is the way another vendor will go.
