There's a small indent issue, I can fix it.

The bigger problem is I _think_ this will trigger a ci failure in the
virtio-net-failover test:

I am not familiar enough with the failover code, and may not have time
today to follow this up, copy Laurent.  Cedric, if you have time, please
have a look.  I'll give it a shot on Monday to find a solution, otherwise
we may need to postpone some of the patches to 9.1.

Thanks,
