It's sessions that are tied with the lcores now.
This makes the vhost devices accessible by any
thread that only locks the global vhost mutex.
The mechanism used for external device events was
refactored to serve for foreach_session() API.
Additionally, since we don't want to handle cases
where the entire vhost device gets removed while
an asynchronous foreach_session chain is pending,
a new per-vdev counter of pending async operations
was added. We'll fail the device removal request
if there are any pending operations. Eventually
we would like the device removal to be asynchronous,
but that's a todo for later.
The external events are still there, although
they only lock the mutex and call the provided
function now.
