This patch tries to implement the synchronize_cbs() for ccw. For the
vring_interrupt() that is called via virtio_airq_handler(), the
synchronization is simply done via the airq_info's lock. For the
vring_interrupt() that is called via virtio_ccw_int_handler(), a per
device spinlock for irq is introduced ans used in the synchronization
method.

This is the only one that is giving me pause. Halil, Cornelia,
should we be concerned about the performance impact here?
Any chance it can be tested?
We can have a bunch of devices using the same airq structure, and the
sync cb creates a choke point, same as registering/unregistering. If
invoking the sync cb is a rare operation (same as (un)registering), it
should not affect interrupt processing for other devices too much, but
it really should be rare.

For testing, you would probably want to use a setup with many devices
that share the same airq area (you can fit a lot of devices if they have
few queues), generate traffic on the queues, and then do something that
triggers the callback (adding/removing a new device in a loop?)

I currently don't have such a setup handy; Halil, would you be able to
test that?

I think we can make this an either/or operation (devices will either use
classic interrupts or adapter interrupts)?
