Looks good generally, but please split this big patch into separate ones like: patch 1: lock vqs one by one patch 2: replace magic number of lock annotation patch 3: factor out generic busy polling logic to vhost_net_busy_poll() patch 4: add rx busy polling in tx path. And please cc Michael in v3. Thanks
