This is guest TX send notification when vhost enables notification. In TCP_STREAM test, vhost exits from reaching NAPI WEIGHT, it rarely enables the notification, vhost re-enters handle_tx from NAPI poll, so guest doesn't do much kick_notify. In multiple TCP_RR test, seems vhost exits from nothing to send in TX vq very often, so it enables notification most of the time.
