net: virtio-net discards TX data after link down
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1295637 Upon set_link monitor command or upon netdev deletion virtio-net sends link down indication to the guest and stops vhost if one is used. Guest driver can still submit data for TX until it recognizes link loss. If these packets not returned by the host, the Windows guest will never be able to finish disable/removal/shutdown. Now each packet sent by guest after NIC indicated link down will be completed immediately. Signed-off-by: NYuri Benditovich <yuri.benditovich@daynix.com> Reviewed-by: NMichael S.
