This patch changes the way that lock all vqs
at the same, to lock them one by one. It will
be used for next patch to avoid the deadlock.

I do prefer the finer-grained locking but I remember we
discussed something like this in the past and Jason saw issues
with such a locking.
This change is suggested by Jason. Should I send new version because
the patch 3 is changed.

Jason?
Actually, the code was a little bit tricky here. Since it assumes 
handle_tx() and handle_rx() run on a single thread. Though the lock 
ordering is different, it was still safe.

Maybe we can add some comments to explain this.

Thanks
