Re: [PATCH net-next v7 7/9] vhost-net: vhost-net: replace rx_ring with tun/tap ring wrappers

Replace the direct use of ptr_ring in the vhost-net virtqueue with
tun/tap ring wrapper helpers. Instead of storing an rx_ring pointer,
the virtqueue now stores the interface type (IF_TUN, IF_TAP, or IF_NONE)
and dispatches to the corresponding tun/tap helpers for ring
produce, consume, and unconsume operations.

Routing ring operations through the tun/tap helpers enables netdev
queue wakeups, which are required for upcoming netdev queue flow
control support shared by tun/tap and vhost-net.

No functional change is intended beyond switching to the wrapper
helpers.
