[RFC PATCH 25/25] hw/virtio: Optimize accesses on vring aligned pointers

["Philippe Mathieu-Daudé" <philmd@redhat.com>]

By the virtio spec [*] the vring is aligned, so the 'idx' and 'flag'
fields are also 16-bit aligned. Therefore we can use the load/store
*aligned* API to set the value.

[*] https://docs.oasis-open.org/virtio/virtio/v1.1/csprd01/virtio-v1.1-csprd01.html#x1-430008
