  This replaces 'skb_queue_tail()' with 'virtio_vsock_skb_queue_tail()'.
The first one uses 'spin_lock_irqsave()', second uses 'spin_lock_bh()'.
There is no need to disable interrupts in the loopback transport as
there is no access to the queue with skbs from interrupt context. Both
virtio and vhost transports work in the same way.

Yep, this is a good point!
