virtio-blk: Disable callback in virtblk_done()
This reduces unnecessary interrupts that host could send to guest while
guest is in the progress of irq handling.
If one vcpu is handling the irq, while another interrupt comes, in
handle_edge_irq(), the guest will mask the interrupt via mask_msi_irq()
which is a very heavy operation that goes all the way down to host.
Here are some performance numbers on qemu:
