I'm not yet very accustomed to qemu sources and I usually associate
source code modules
integration with type_init().
Related to vhost-net, I later found out that it is an API like source
code, it is used/called by virtio-net.

How does the vhost API links with vhost devices?
I don't see any "*-net" or "*_net" or even "*net" references in vhost API
files,
nor do I see any registering macros inside vhost-net device code.
What do you mean by "link"?
The vhost kernel modules have an ioctl(2) interface. See
hw/virtio/vhost-backend.c:vhost_kernel_call() callers.
