  The driver can suppress interrupt when VIRTIO_F_EVENT_IDX feature bit is
negotiated. The driver set vring flags to 0, and MAY use used_event in
available ring to advise device interrupt util reach an index specified
by used_event. The device ignore the lower bit of vring flags, and send
an interrupt when index reach used_event.

The device can suppress notification in a manner analogous to the ways
driver suppress interrupt. The device manipulates flags or avail_event in
the used ringin the same way the driver manipulates flags or used_event in
available ring.

This patch is to enable this feature in vhost.

Signed-off-by: Junjie Chen <junjie.j.chen@intel.com>

v5:
Remove updating avail event index in backend.

v2-v4:
Use definition of VIRTIO_F_EVENT_IDX from kernel.

From vhost side, vhost_used_event(vr) is volatile.
