Subject: [RFC 6/7] vhost: Add kthread support in function vhost_worker_create

Split the function vhost_worker_create to support both task and kthread
       
Added back the previous old function vhost_worker_create and rename it to
vhost_worker_create_khtread to support the khtread.

The new vhost_worker_queue will be selected which to use based on the
value of the parameter.
