Thanks for the detailed explanation.
I kept virtio_net_hdr_mrg_rxbuf and virtio_net_hdr_v1_hash structures in
virtio_net.h, which can be forward compatible with existing user

Thanks for adding David S. Miller.
The virtio_net
The virtio_net driver currently deals with different versions and types
of virtio net headers, such as virtio_net_hdr_mrg_rxbuf,
virtio_net_hdr_v1_hash, etc. Due to these variations, the code relies
on multiple type casts to convert memory between different structures,
potentially leading to bugs
