With a TODO item like this I'd expect this to be an RFC.
Here's why:
Making driver more robust from device failures is a laudable goal but it's really
hard to be 100% foolproof here. E.g. device can just block pci reads and
it would be very hard to recover. So I'm going to only merge patches
like this if they at least theoretically have very little chance
of breaking existing users.
And note that in most setups, CVQ is only used at startup and then left mostly alone.
Finally, note that lots of guests need virtio to do anything useful at all.
So just failing commands is not enough to recover - you need to try
harder maybe by attempting to reset device. Could be a question of
policy - might need to make this guest configurable.
