The value returned by virtio_vring_size() is used to allocate memory
for vring. The used descriptor list (array of vring_used_elem) is
counted by the header - vring_used struct - is not.
This fixes virtio_vring_size() to return the correct size.
At the moment rings are quite small (256) and allocated with
4096 alignment, this is why we have not been having issues with
this so far.

While at it, lets not have the above magic numbers as well ^^^^^^^^^^
sizeof(struct vring_avail) + sizeof(uint16_t) * qsize

That should be at least ok for the current status that we support in
SLOF. I think I might have written the original version of that
function with a very old version of the virtio spec (v0.8.10), when
ther was no "used_event" event field in the struct vring_avail defined
yet.
But if SLOF ever supports VIRTIO_F_EVENT_IDX, we've got to keep in mind
to add some additional bytes here, too.
