When we use vhost-user backend on the host, MSI-X vector should be set
so that the vmm can get an irq FD and send it to the backend device
process with vhost-user protocol.
Since whether the vector is set for a queue is determined depending on
the queue has a callback, this commit sets an empty callback for
virtio-net's control queue.

I'm confused by this explanation. If the vmm wants to get
an interrupt it can do so - why change the guest driver?

+1, it sounds like a bug in the backend or we probably need more context 
here.

Thanks
