virtio: use defer_call() in virtio_irqfd_notify()
virtio-blk and virtio-scsi invoke virtio_irqfd_notify() to send Used
Buffer Notifications from an IOThread. This involves an eventfd
write(2) syscall. Calling this repeatedly when completing multiple I/O
requests in a row is wasteful.
Use the defer_call() API to batch together virtio_irqfd_notify() calls
made during thread pool (aio=threads), Linux AIO (aio=native), and
io_uring (aio=io_uring) completion processing.
Behavior is unchanged for emulated devices that do not use
defer_call_begin()/defer_call_end() since defer_call() immediately
invokes the callback when called outside a
defer_call_begin()/defer_call_end() region.
fio rw=randread bs=4k iodepth=64 numjobs=8 IOPS increases by ~9% with a
single IOThread and 8 vCPUs. iodepth=1 decreases by ~1% but this could
be noise. Detailed performance data and configuration specifics are
available here:

This duplicates the BH that virtio-blk uses for batching. The next
commit will remove it.
