Ok, thanks, this is the key function.
static int cont =1;
static int virtnet_poll_jprobe(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)
{
        struct receive_queue *rq =
                container_of(napi, struct receive_queue, napi);
        struct virtnet_info *vi = rq->vq->vdev->priv;
        struct send_queue *sq;
        struct vring_virtqueue *vq;
        int i;

        if (cont == 1) {
                for (i = 0; i < curr_queue_pairs; i++) {
                        sq = &vi->sq[i];
                        vq = to_vvq(sq->vq);
                       vq->notify(sq->vq);
                }
                cont = 0;
        }
        jprobe_return();
        return 0;
}
When the problem occurs, one queue pair(each nic has two queue pairs) is 
active, so virtual nic can still receive skbs.
And, only one queue pair misses a interrupt.
To run the jprobe, some definition of function and structure should be copied 
to jprobe.c.
