When qemu with vhost-vdpa netdevice is run for the first time, it works
well.
But after the VM is powered off, the next qemu run causes kernel panic due
to a
NULL pointer dereference in irq_bypass_register_producer().
When the VM is powered off, vhost_vdpa_clean_irq() misses on calling
irq_bypass_unregister_producer() for irq 0 because of the existing check.
This leaves stale producer nodes, which are reset in
vhost_vring_call_reset()
when vhost_dev_init() is invoked during the second qemu run.
As the node member of struct irq_bypass_producer is also initialized
to zero, traversal on the producers list causes crash due to NULL pointer
dereference.

- Addressed Jason's comment to remove the irq check and use
vhost_vdpa_unsetup_vq_irq() to avoid local variable vq

Could you please repost without HTML? Otherwise git am fails on this patch:
error: corrupt patch at line 6
error: could not build fake ancestor
Patch failed at 0001 vhost vdpa: fix the missing irq_bypass_unregister_producer() invocation
Also, which commit introduces the bug? A Fixes: tag would be helpful.
Thanks!

I've added the fixes tag and submitted patch v3 in plain-text format.
