utilize it to reduce the # of interrupts sent to the guest.

Use of skb_queue_empty(&sock->sk->sk_receive_queue)
without taking the sk_receive_queue.lock is unsafe
or useless. Take it out.

vhost takes a sock lock to try and prevent
the skb from being pulled from the receive queue
after skb_peek. However this is not the right lock to use for that,
sk_receive_queue.lock is. Fix that up.

Codes duplication were found between the handling of mergeable and big
buffers, so this patch tries to unify them. This could be easily done
by adding a quota to the get_rx_bufs() which is used to limit the
number of buffers it returns (for mergeable buffer, the quota is
simply UIO_MAXIOV, for big buffers, the quota is just 1), and then the
previous handle_rx_mergeable() could be resued also for big buffers.

No need to check the support of mergeable buffer inside the recevie
loop as the whole handle_rx()_xx is in the read critical region. So
this patch move it ahead of the receiving loop.

copy_from_user is pretty high on perf top profile,
replacing it with __copy_from_user helps.
It's also safe because we do access_ok checks during setup.

When built with rcu checks enabled, vhost triggers
bogus warnings as vhost features are read without
dev->mutex sometimes, and private pointer is read
with our kind of rcu where work serves as a
read side critical section.
Fixing it properly is not trivial.
Disable the warnings by stubbing out the checks for now.

To detect that a sequence number is done, we are doing math on unsigned
integers so the result is unsigned too. Not what was intended for the <=
comparison. The result is user stuck forever in flush call.
Convert to int to fix this.
Further, get rid of ({}) to make code clearer.

Fix two bugs in dirty page logging:
When counting pages we should increase address by 1 instead of
VHOST_PAGE_SIZE. Make log_write() correctly process requests
that cross pages with write_address not starting at page boundary.
