:b) OpenBSD/amd64: set up vio flags to 0x02

The man page for vio(4) says:
     Setting the bit 0x2 in the flags disables the RingEventIndex feature.
     This can be tried as a workaround for possible bugs in host
     implementations of vio at the cost of slightly reduced performance.

What bugs in the host implementation, which versions are affected, how
bad is the performance hit, and should this be the default?
