Pls Cc more widely then:

Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx> (reviewer:VIRTIO BLOCK AND SCSI DRIVERS)
Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@xxxxxxxxxx> (reviewer:VIRTIO BLOCK AND SCSI DRIVERS)
Xuan Zhuo <xuanzhuo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (reviewer:VIRTIO CORE AND NET DRIVERS)
Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:BLOCK LAYER)

would all be good people to ask to review this.
