_F_ should be a bit number, not a shifted value.
Yes I know current virtio_ring.h is inconsistent in
that respect. changes welcome though we need to
maintain the old names for the sake of old apps.

These are values, I think they should not have _F_.
Yes I know current virtio_ring.h is inconsistent in
that respect.

Given it's a single bit, maybe even
VRING_PACKED_EVENT_F_WRAP_CTR

I'm not sure the mask is justified.
