Subject: [PATCH 2/6] vhost_net: use vhost_add_used_and_signal_n() in vhost_zerocopy_signal_used()

Switch to use vhost_add_used_and_signal_n() to avoid multiple calls to
vhost_add_used_and_signal(). With the patch we will call at most 2 times
(consider done_idx warp around) compared to N times w/o this patch.
