Subject[PATCH 1/1] vhost: Protect the virtqueue from being cleared whilst still in use
Date
vhost_vsock_handle_tx_kick() already holds the mutex during its call
to vhost_get_vq_desc(). All we have to do here is take the same lock
during virtqueue clean-up and we mitigate the reported issues.

Also WARN() as a precautionary measure. The purpose of this is to
capture possible future race conditions which may pop up over time.
