I think I see a problem here. For virtio, we do not necessarily want all
virtqueues for a device to live in kernel: there might be control
virtqueues that we want to leave in userspace. Since this claims all
writes to a specific address, the signal never makes it to userspace.

Userspace could create an eventfd for this control queue and wait for it to fire.
