Replace vhost_workqueue with per-vhost kthread. Other than callback
argument change from struct work_struct * to struct vhost_work *,
there's no visible change to vhost_poll_*() interface.
This conversion is to make each vhost use a dedicated kthread so that
resource control via cgroup can be applied.
Partially based on Sridhar Samudrala's patch.
* Updated to use sub structure vhost_work instead of directly using
vhost_poll at Michael's suggestion.
* Added flusher wake_up() optimization at Michael's suggestion.

Okay, just tested it. dev->work_lock had to be updated to use irq
operations but other than that it worked just fine. Copied a large
file using scp and it seems to perform pretty well although I don't
have any reference of comparison. So, here's the updated version with
the sign off.
Thanks.
