vhost_vsock_handle_tx_kick() already holds the mutex during its call to vhost_get_vq_desc(). All we have to do here is take the same lock during virtqueue clean-up and we mitigate the reported issues. Also WARN() as a precautionary measure. The purpose of this is to capture possible future race conditions which may pop up over time.
