  vhost: Remove custom vhost rcu usage (2013-07-11 15:38:40 +0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
vhost: more fixes for 3.11

This includes some fixes for vhost net and scsi drivers.
The test module has already been reworked to avoid rcu
usage, but the necessary core changes are missing,
we fixed this.
Unlikely to affect any real-world users, but it's
early in the cycle so, let's merge them.
