From: Hanna Czenczek <hreitz@redhat.com>

vhost_virtqueue_start() can exit early if the descriptor ring address is
0, assuming the virtqueue isn’t ready to start.

In this case, all cached vring information (size, physical address,
pointer) is left as-is.  This is OK at first startup, when that info is
still initialized to 0, but after a reset, it will retain old (outdated)
information.

vhost_virtqueue_start() must make sure these values are (re-)set
properly before exiting.

(When using an IOMMU, these outdated values can stall the device:
vhost_dev_start() deliberately produces an IOMMU miss event for each
used vring.  If used_phys contains an outdated value, the resulting
lookup may fail, forcing the device to be stopped.)
