[v4,1/2] vhost: add unsafe API to check inflight packets
Checks
Commit Message
In async data path, when vring state changes or device is destroyed,
it is necessary to know the number of inflight packets in DMA engine.
This patch provides a thread unsafe API to return the number of
inflight packets for a vhost queue without using any lock.
