Access to the vring and guest memory is typically only possible from vhost worker context so it is useful to allow work to be queued directly by users. Currently vhost_net only uses the poll wrappers which do not expose the work queue functions. However, for tcm_vhost (vhost_scsi) it will be necessary to queue custom work.
