Users can register async copy device in vring_state_changed(),
when vhost queue is enabled. However, a deadlock occurs inside
rte_vhost_async_channel_register(), if VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES
is not supported, as vhost_user_msg_handler() takes vq->access_lock
before calling vhost_user_set_vring_kick().
This patch avoids async register deadlock by removing calling
vring_state_changed() in vhost_user_set_vring_kick(). It's safe
as vhost_user_msg_handler() will call vring_state_changed() anyway.
