When detaching a buffer from a vq, the avail.idx value should be decremented as well. This was noticed by hot-unplugging a virtio console port and then plugging in a new one on the same number (re-using the vqs which were just 'disowned'). qemu reported 'Guest moved used index from 0 to 256' when any IO was attempted on the new port.
