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.

+               if (vq->call_ctx.producer.irq >= 0)
irq_bypass_unregister_producer(&vq->call_ctx.producer);

Since it's impossible to have an irq < 0 ( see
vhost_vdap_setup_vq_irq()), I think we can simply remove the check above.

Then we can call vhost_vdpa_unsetup_vq_irq() here to avoid temporary
variable like vq.
Done and submitted patch v2.

Thanks
