Bug were introduced by commit cedb9bdce099206290a2bdd02ce47a7b253b6a84 (vhost-net: skip head management if no outstanding). This solves the following warnings: WARNING: at include/linux/kref.h:47 handle_tx+0x477/0x4b0 [vhost_net]() Modules linked in: vhost_net macvtap macvlan tun nfsd exportfs bridge stp llc openvswitch kvm_amd kvm bnx2 megaraid_sas [last unloaded: tun] CPU: 5 PID: 8670 Comm: vhost-8668 Not tainted 3.10.0-rc2+ #1566 Hardware name: Dell Inc.
