If give up the old ring after migration and keep DMA running before
stopping VCPU, it seems we don't need to track Tx/Rx descriptor ring and
just make sure that all Rx buffers delivered to stack has been migrated.

1) Dummy write Rx buffer before checking Rx descriptor to ensure packet
migrated first.

2) Make a copy of Rx descriptor and then use the copied data to check
buffer status. Not use the original descriptor because it won't be
migrated and migration may happen between two access of the Rx descriptor.
