We used to call mutex_lock() in vhost_dev_lock_vqs() which tries to
hold mutexes of all virtqueues. This may confuse lockdep to report a
possible deadlock because of trying to hold locks belong to same
class. Switch to use mutex_lock_nested() to avoid false positive.

Michael, I see you ACK'd this, meaning that you're OK with these two
fixes going via my net tree?

Thanks.

Yes - this seems to be what Jason wanted (judging by the net
tag in the subject) and I'm fine with it.
Thanks a lot.
