Subject: [PATCH] net/virtio: fix vector Rx flushing

[ upstream commit bcf55c93026ff1db8ff2838766bbaaa38741579e ]

The vector Rx will be broken if backend has consumed all
the descs in the avail ring before the device is started.
Because in current implementation, vector Rx will return
immediately without refilling the avail ring if the used
ring is empty. So we have to refill the avail ring after
flushing the elements in the used ring for vector Rx.

Besides, vector Rx has a different ring layout assumption
and mbuf management. So we need to handle it differently.

Fixes: d8227497ec5c ("net/virtio: flush Rx queues on start")
