[27/84] virtio: support unlocked queue poll

[Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>]

3.2.50-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

commit cc229884d3f77ec3b1240e467e0236c3e0647c0c upstream.

This adds a way to check ring empty state after enable_cb outside any
locks. Will be used by virtio_net.

Note: there's room for more optimization: caller is likely to have a
memory barrier already, which means we might be able to get rid of a
barrier here.  Deferring this optimization until we do some
benchmarking.
