This patch allows userspace to create workers and bind them to vqs, so you
can have N workers per dev and also share N workers with M vqs. The next
patch will allow sharing across devices.

I would like to have a single point where we release the lock to avoid
future issues, how about changing vhost_worker_find() to:
