I like the idea to factor the notifier code in a seperate
vhost_user_notifiers_cleanup(). I can do it. Thanks!

I think you are right. We already checked whether user->chr
is zero. The caller should make sure that the VhostUserState
will be zero initialized.

Sounds good to me. Besides, there are already some basic
external host notifier supports in tests/vhost-user-bridge.c
that can be enabled with -H. I'm not sure whether that already
met what you want. If adding some basic tests in vhost-user-test.c
would help, I'd like to do it.
Thanks for the review!
