We have VirtIO RPMSG available for Xvisor Guest/VM. When I run Linux-5.19-rcX
as Xvisor Guest/VM, I get following warning for every call to
virtqueue_add_inbuf():

I am not claiming that this patch does the right thing but with this patch
VirtIO RPmsg starts working again for me on Xvisor Guest/VM.

Upon further investigation, it seems this warning is because of a recent kernel
commit mentioned in the "Fixes: " tag. Looks like with latest 5.19-rcX, we can't
call virtqueue_add_inbuf() until virtqueue is marked as unbroken by
virtio_device_ready().

Anup
