Peter-Jan Gootzen 106e4df120 virtio-fs: improved request latencies when Virtio queue is full
Currently, when the Virtio queue is full, a work item is scheduled
to execute in 1ms that retries adding the request to the queue.
This is a large amount of time on the scale on which a
virtio-fs device can operate. When using a DPU this is around
30-40us baseline without going to a remote server (4k, QD=1).

This patch changes the retrying behavior to immediately filling the
Virtio queue up again when a completion has been received.

This reduces the 99.9th percentile latencies in our tests by
60x and slightly increases the overall throughput, when using a
workload IO depth 2x the size of the Virtio queue and a
DPU-powered virtio-fs device (NVIDIA BlueField DPU).
