guest kick vhost base on vring flag status and get perfermance improved,
vhost_zerocopy_callback could do this in the same way, as
virtqueue_enable_cb need one more check after change the status of
avail_ring flags, vhost also do the same thing after vhost_enable_notify
test result list as below:
guest and host: suse11sp3, netperf, intel 2.4GHz
