I am saving the vqs in the send_queue, but the cb needs
to locate the device txq from the svq. The only other way
I could think of is to iterate through the send_queue's
and compare svq against sq[i]->svq, but cb's happen quite
a bit. Is there a better way?

static void skb_xmit_done(struct virtqueue *svq)
{
        struct virtnet_info *vi = svq->vdev->priv;
        int qnum = virtio_get_queue_index(svq) - 1;     /* 0 is RX vq */

        /* Suppress further interrupts. */
        virtqueue_disable_cb(svq);

        /* We were probably waiting for more output buffers. */
        netif_wake_subqueue(vi->dev, qnum);
}

The main reason was vhost :) Since vhost_net_release
should not fail (__fput can't handle f_op->release()
failure), I needed a maximum number of socks to
clean up:

#define MAX_VQS (1 + VIRTIO_MAX_TXQS)
static int vhost_net_release(struct inode *inode, struct file *f)
{
        struct vhost_net *n = f->private_data;
        struct vhost_dev *dev = &n->dev;
        struct socket *socks[MAX_VQS];
        int i;

        vhost_net_stop(n, socks);
        vhost_net_flush(n);
        vhost_dev_cleanup(dev);

        for (i = n->dev.nvqs - 1; i >= 0; i--)
                if (socks[i])
                        fput(socks[i]->file);
        ...
}
