Loopback transport can mangle data in rx queue when a linear skb is
followed by a small MSG_ZEROCOPY packet.
Can we describe a bit more what the test is doing?

This is essentially a regression test for virtio transport, so I'd add 
virtio in the test name.

I think we don't need this, I mean we can eventually just send a single

Should we also call vsock_recv_completion() or we don't care about the 
result?

If we need it, maybe we can factor our the poll + 
vsock_recv_completion().

This is cool, another option is to add a barrier here (and after the 
poll), but yeah, this should be even better.

Thanks,
