Jason Wang f5a4941aa6 vhost_net: flush batched heads before trying to busy polling
After commit e2b3b35eb9 ("vhost_net: batch used ring update in rx"),
we tend to batch updating used heads. But it doesn't flush batched
heads before trying to do busy polling, this will cause vhost to wait
for guest TX which waits for the used RX. Fixing by flush batched
heads before busy loop.

1 byte TCP_RR performance recovers from 13107.83 to 50402.65.

Fixes: e2b3b35eb9 ("vhost_net: batch used ring update in rx")

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
