Linux Virtualization - Jun 2020 - [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.6 111/606] vhost/vsock: fix packet delivery order to monitoring devices

From: Stefano Garzarella <sgarzare at redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 107bc0766b9feb5113074c753735a3f115c2141f ]

We want to deliver packets to monitoring devices before it is
put in the virtqueue, to avoid that replies can appear in the
packet capture before the transmitted packet.
