I think we'll want to add some logic to avoid the potential for
re-pushing an elem we've already processed, as I think that violates the
virtio spec. In the past the monitor blocked us from doing this but with
timer-driven requests I think it's a possibility now.

But the general approach seems sane to me and the code looks to
be in decent shape.
