I'm guessing we need to do something like netif_device_detach here,
otherwise guest might be in the process of using the vq for transmit at
this point.

I think we also must make sure NAPI RX handler is not in progress.

We also might need to mask interrupts from the device
to prevent TX or RX from getting rescheduled?
