Missing doc comment.

The following variable names are a little confusing:
last_avail_idx vs vq->last_avail_idx. last_avail_idx is a wrapped
avail->ring[] index, vq->last_avail_idx is a free-running counter. The
same for last_used_idx vs vq->last_used_idx.
num argument vs vq->num. The argument could be called nheads instead to
make it clear that this is heads[] and not the virtqueue size.
Not a bug but it took me a while to figure out what was going on.
