virtio-net: purge outstanding packets when starting vhost
whenever we start vhost, virtio could have outstanding packets queued, when they complete later we'll modify the ring while vhost is processing it. To prevent this, purge outstanding packets on vhost start. Cc: qemu-stable@nongnu.org Cc: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
