Subject: [PATCH 1/2] vhost: simplify work flushing

We used to implement the work flushing through tracking queued seq,
done seq, and the number of flushing. This patch simplify this by just
implement work flushing through another kind of vhost work with
completion. This will be used by lockless enqueuing patch.
