vhost: comment identified issues

1) FIXME: concurrent calls to vhost set mem table from different guests
could cause mem_temp to be overrided.
2) TODO: cmpset cost quite some cpu cyles. Allow app to disable this
feature if there is no contention in real workload.
3) FIXME: fix scatter gather mbuf copy to vhost vring chained buffers.
