This patch introduces a new state bit VIF_STATUS_CONNECTED to track whether the

in this series, which aims to turn the carrier temporarily off if the guest

This bit shift applies to vif. In the following patch you introduce two
more bits specifically for queues. IMHO we should avoid mixing things
up. What about having two enums
enum vif_state_bit_shift {}
enum queue_state_bit_shift {}
