Commit af8ececda185 ("virtio: add VIRTIO_F_NOTIFICATION_DATA feature
support") added notification data support to the core virtio driver
code. When this feature is enabled, the notification includes the
updated producer index for the queue. Thus it is now critical that
notifications arrive in order.

The virtio_blk driver has historically not worried about notification
ordering. Modify it so that the prepare and kick steps are both done
under the vq lock.

Do we have performance numbers when VIRTIO_F_NOTIFICATION_DATA is not
negotiated?

We need to make sure it doesn't introduce any regression in the case
like virtualization setup since now there could be an vmexit when
holding the virtqueue lock.

Thanks
