Thanks for submitting this, it will make life easier for distro's

Hi Rusty,
So, this adds another host-side virtqueue implementation.
Can we combine them together conveniently? You pulled out more stuff
into vring.h which is a start, but it's a bit overloaded.
Perhaps we should separate the common fields into struct vring, and use
it to build:
exit_idle() should be called after irq_enter(), otherwise it throws:

Hi David,
The big and only question is whether anyone can actually use any of
this stuff without your proprietary bits?
