Better to post these two patches in a series.Or else it may cause VM
reboot problem as that is where the device gets reset. The avail_index
did not as the correct value will be written to by driver right after,
but used_idx introduced by this patch is supplied by device hence this
patch alone would introduce regression.

You can try reboot the guest, that'll be the easy way to test.
