This does look simpler. The reason for not doing this is that the argument
accepted by __vring_new_virtqueue() is "struct vring", and
__vring_new_virtqueue() is an export symbol.

I took a look, and the only external direct call to __vring_new_virtqueue is
here.

	tools/virtio/virtio_test.c
	static void vq_reset(struct vq_info *info, int num, struct virtio_device *vdev)
	{
		if (info->vq)
			vring_del_virtqueue(info->vq);

		memset(info->ring, 0, vring_size(num, 4096));
		vring_init(&info->vring, num, info->ring, 4096);
		info->vq = __vring_new_virtqueue(info->idx, info->vring, vdev, true,
						 false, vq_notify, vq_callback, "test");
		assert(info->vq);
		info->vq->priv = info;
	}

I think this could be replaced with vring_new_virtqueue() so that we don't need
to make __vring_new_virtqueue as an export function so we can make some
modifications to it.

nit: vring_alloc_desc_extra() should not have to be extract from
__vring_new_virtqueue() .

Thanks.
