Subject: [PATCH v4 1/2] virtio: decrement avail idx with buffer detach for packed ring

This patch decrements 'next_avail_idx' count when detaching a buffer
from vq for packed ring code. Split ring code already does this in
virtqueue_detach_unused_buf_split function. This updates the
'next_avail_idx' to the previous correct index after an unused buffer
is detatched from the vq.
