Revert "virtio: turn vq->notification into a nested counter"

This reverts commit aff8fd18f1786fc5af259a9bc0077727222f51ca.

Both virtio-net and virtio-crypto do not balance
virtio_queue_set_notification() enable and disable calls.  This makes
the notifications_disabled counter unreliable and Doug Goldstein
reported the following assertion failure:

  #3  0x00007ffff44d1c62 in __GI___assert_fail (
      assertion=assertion@entry=0x555555ae8e8a "vq->notification_disabled > 0",

This patch is safe to revert since it's just an optimization for
virtqueue polling.  The next patch will improve the situation again
without resorting to nesting.
