[PATCH 1/1] kvm: qemu: Add VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY

[Mark McLoughlin]

Set the VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY feature bit so the
guest can rely on us notifying them when the queue
is empty.

Also, only notify when the available queue is empty
*and* when we've finished with all the buffers we
had detached. Right now, when the queue is empty,
we notify the guest for every used buffer.
