So we don't have a similar check for detach_unused_buf(), I guess it
should be sufficient to document the API requirement. Otherwise we
probably need some barriers/ordering which are not worthwhile just for
figuring out bad API usage.

If we agree on that we need a allocation routine, we probably need to
rename this as vring_free_virtqueue()

Thanks
