Right, so if you agree I'll move these before virtio_device_ready().

Yes I see, should I break into 2 patches (one where I move the code already
present and this one)?

Maybe a single patch is fine since it's the complete solution.

Thank you for the detailed explanation,
Stefano

Two I think since movement can be backported to before the hardening
effort.

Yep, maybe 3 since seqpacket was added later.

Thanks,
Stefano
