While virtq is stopped, get_vq_state() is supposed to

b35ccebe3ef7 introduced the clear_virtqueues() routine
to reset the saved avail_index, however, the index
gets cleared a bit earlier before get_vq_state() tries
to read it. This would cause consistency problems when
virtq is restarted, e.g. through a series of link down
and link up events. We could defer the clearing of
avail_index to until the device is to be started,
i.e. until VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK is set again in
set_status().

I take it back. I think we don't need to clear the indexes at all. In
case we need to restore indexes we'll get the right values through
set_vq_state(). If we suspend the virtqueue due to VM being suspended,
qemu will query first and will provide the the queried value. In case of
VM reboot, it will provide 0 in set_vq_state().
I am sending a patch that addresses both reboot and suspend.
With set_vq_state() repurposed to restoring used_index I'm fine with
this approach.
Do I have to repost a v3 of this series while dropping the 3rd patch?
