From: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>

We call into libvhost-user from the virtqueue handler thread and the
vhost-user message processing thread without a lock.  There is nothing
protecting the virtqueue handler thread if the vhost-user message
processing thread changes the virtqueue or memory table while it is
running.

This patch introduces a read-write lock.  Virtqueue handler threads are
readers.  The vhost-user message processing thread is a writer.  This
will allow concurrency for multiqueue in the future while protecting
against fv_queue_thread() vs virtio_loop() races.

Note that the critical sections could be made smaller but it would be
more invasive and require libvhost-user changes.  Let's start simple and
improve performance later, if necessary.  Another option would be an
RCU-style approach with lighter-weight primitives.
