Using vq->wrap_counter seems not correct, what we need is the warp
counter for the last_used_idx not next_avail_idx.
And I think there's even no need to bother with event idx here, how
about just set VRING_EVENT_F_ENABLE?

bufs could be more than vq->num here, is this intended?

When used_idx is greater or equal vq->num, there's no need to flip
warp_counter bit since it should match next_avail_idx.
And we need also care about the case when next_avail wraps but used_idx
not. so we probaly need:
else if (vq->next_avail_idx < used_idx) {
wrap_counter ^= 1;
}
I think maybe it's time to add some sample codes in the spec to avoid
duplicating the efforts(bugs).
