It's hard to track all mac addresses and their configurations (e.g vlan or ipv6) in qemu. Without this information, it's impossible to build proper garp packet after migration. The only possible solution to this is let guest (who knows all configurations) to do this. So, this patch introduces a new readonly config status bit of virtio-net, VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE which is used to notify guest to announce presence of its link through config update interrupt.When guest has done the announcement, it should ack the notification through VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_ANNOUNCE_ACK cmd. This feature is negotiated by a new feature bit VIRTIO_NET_F_ANNOUNCE (which has already been supported by Linux guest). During load, a counter of announcing rounds is set so that after the vm is running it can trigger rounds of config interrupts to notify the guest to build and send the correct garps.
