It is tricky here.

here, because in virtnet_del_vqs() all vqs are deleted and one vp
maps to one txq.

I am afraid you have to add a spinlock somewhere to serialized
free_old_xmit_skbs() vs. vring_del_virtqueue(). As you can see
they are in different layers, so it is hard to figure out where to add
it...

Also, make sure we don't sleep inside the spinlock, I see a
synchronize_net().
