So the annoying thing here is that once this starts going,
it will keep sending free pages from the list even if
host is no longer interested. There should be a way
for host to tell guest "stop" or "start from the beginning".


It's the result of using same vq for guest to host and
host to guest communication, and I think it's not a great idea.
I'd reuse stats vq for host to guest requests maybe.
