The outvq needs to be woken up on host notifications so that buffers
consumed by the host can be reclaimed, outvq freed, and application
writes may proceed again.

The need for this is now finally noticed when I have qemu patches ready

What about -stable?

Yes, it's needed (I added the CC: stable@kernel.org tag -- that should
be enough, right?)
