vhost: make page logging atomic

Each dirty page logging operation should be atomic. But it's not
atomic in current implementation. So it's possible that some dirty
pages can't be logged successfully when different threads try to
log different pages into the same byte of the log buffer concurrently.
This patch fixes this issue.

Fixes: b171fad1ffa5 ("vhost: log used vring changes")
