virtio-net: reset virtqueue affinity when doing cpu hotplug
Add a cpu notifier to virtio-net, so that we can reset the virtqueue affinity if the cpu hotplug happens. It improve the performance through enabling or disabling the virtqueue affinity after doing cpu hotplug. Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: "Michael S.
