I get to following compile error:
In function ‘virtio_blk_handle_request’:
virtio-blk.c:264:28: error: ‘status’ may be used uninitialized in this function 
[-Werror=uninitialized]
virtio-blk.c:151:9: note: ‘status’ was declared here
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Are you using  -disable-werror ?
