Does virtio say it has a write cache or not (and how does one say it?)?

Historically it didn't and the only safe way to use virtio was in
cache=writethrough mode.

Which should be the default on Ubuntu's kvm that this report is concerned with so I'm a bit confused.

Avi's patch is a performance optimization, not a correctness issue?
