For debug I think could be useful to link the vhost-vsock kthread to the
CID, but for the user point of view, maybe is better to query the VM
management layer, for example if you're using libvirt, you can easily do:

$ virsh dumpxml fedora34 | grep cid
<cid auto='yes' address='3'/>

I honestly don't know if it's the best interface, like I said maybe for
debugging it's fine, but if we want to expose it to the user in some
way, we could support devlink/netlink to provide information about the
vsock devices currently in use.

Instead of keeping this rcu lock between vsock_start() and vsock_stop(),
maybe it's better to make a dump here of the bindings (pid/cid), save it
in an array, and iterate it in vsock_next().

A while() maybe was more readable...
