Both this code and the virtio spec (which is already merged) are
missing msgs[i].flags and they are never sent to backend. The only
flags available here are the ones defined by virtio spec and these are
not i2c flags.

I also looked at your i2c backend for acrn and it mistakenly copies
the hdr.flag, which is the virtio flag and not i2c flag.

https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/blob/master/devicemodel/hw/pci/virtio/virtio_i2c.c#L539

I will send a fix for the specs if you agree that there is a problem
here.

what am I missing here ? This should have been caught in your testing
and so I feel I must be missing something.
