Mike Christie 34cf9ba5f0 vhost: Use virtqueue mutex for swapping worker
__vhost_vq_attach_worker uses the vhost_dev mutex to serialize the
swapping of a virtqueue's worker. This was done for simplicity because
we are already holding that mutex.

In the next patches where the worker can be killed while in use, we need
finer grained locking because some drivers will hold the vhost_dev mutex
while flushing. However in the SIGKILL handler in the next patches, we
will need to be able to swap workers (set current one to NULL), kill
queued works and stop new flushes while flushes are in progress.

To prepare us, this has us use the virtqueue mutex for swapping workers
instead of the vhost_dev one.
