Done. I introduced locals to make it fit.

One other thing... We need some API that says "we are running in the
context of a work queue." Otherwise, we will get false positives when
called in a work queue without locks held.

Any thoughts? One approach would be to create a separate lockdep class
for vhost workqueue state, similar to the approach used in instrument
rcu_read_lock() and friends.

Thanx, Paul
