vhost is currently broken on the default ARM config.
The reason is that that uses apcs-gnu which is the ancient OABI that is been
deprecated for a long time.
Given that virtio support on such ancient systems is not needed in the
first place, let's just add something along the lines of
depends on !ARM || AEABI
to the virtio Kconfig declaration, and add a comment that it has to do
with struct member alignment.
Note: we can't make VHOST and VHOST_RING themselves have
a dependency since these are selected. Add a new symbol for that.
