Subject: [PATCH 7/8] netback: split event channels support

Netback and netfront only use one event channel to do tx / rx notification.
This may cause unnecessary wake-up of process routines. This patch adds a new
feature called feautre-split-event-channel to netback, enabling it to handle
Tx and Rx event separately.

Netback will use tx_irq to notify guest for tx completion, rx_irq for rx
notification.

If frontend doesn't support this feature, tx_irq = rx_irq.
