Turns out virtio console tries to take a buffer out of an active vq.
Works by sheer luck, and is explicitly forbidden by spec.  And while
going over it I saw that error handling is also broken -
failure is easy to trigger if I force allocations to fail.

Lightly tested.

Amit - any feedback before I push these patches?

The changes look good spec-wise.

There are a bunch of tests in avocado-vt that test virtio-console
functionality.  Can you give those a try before pushing?

		Amit

I pushed before I did that test, will try to find the time later.  BTW
do you still want to be on the maintainers list?
