Stefan Hajnoczi 600f5ce356 virtio-crypto: fix virtio_queue_set_notification() race
We must check for new virtqueue buffers after re-enabling notifications.
This prevents the race condition where the guest added buffers just
after we stopped popping the virtqueue but before we re-enabled
notifications.

I think the virtio-crypto code was based on virtio-net but this crucial
detail was missed.  virtio-net does not have the race condition because
it processes the virtqueue one more time after re-enabling
notifications.
