The vsock flag can be set during the connect() setup logic, when
initializing the vsock address data structure variable. Then the vsock
transport is assigned, also considering this flag.

The vsock transport is also assigned on the (listen) receive path. The
flag needs to be set considering the use case.

Set the vsock flag of the remote address to the one targeted for sibling
VMs communication if the following conditions are met:

* The source CID of the packet is higher than VMADDR_CID_HOST.
* The destination CID of the packet is higher than VMADDR_CID_HOST.

Maybe is better to create an helper function that other transports can 
use for the same purpose or we can put this code in the 
vsock_assign_transport() and set this flag only when the 'psk' argument 
is not NULL (this is the case when it's called by the transports when we 
receive a new connection request and 'psk' is the listener socket).

The second way should allow us to support all the transports without 
touching them.

svm_flag is always initialized to 0 in vsock_addr_init(), so this 
assignment is the first one and it's okay, but to avoid future issues 
I'd use |= here to set the flag.

Thanks,
Stefano
