[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/2] net/vhost: fix queue update

[Maxime Coquelin <maxime.coquelin@redhat.com>]

Now that the vhost library saves the guest notifications
enablement value in its virtqueues metadata, it is not
necessary to do it in the vring_state_changed callback.

One effect of the patch is also to prevent possible
deadlock happening in vhost library.

Fixes: 604052ae5395 ("net/vhost: support queue update")
