[PATCH v3 2/3] vhost-user-blk: perform immediate cleanup if disconnect on initialization

[Denis Plotnikov]

Commit 4bcad76f4c39 ("vhost-user-blk: delay vhost_user_blk_disconnect")
introduced postponing vhost_dev cleanup aiming to eliminate qemu aborts
because of connection problems with vhost-blk daemon.

However, it introdues a new problem. Now, any communication errors
during execution of vhost_dev_init() called by vhost_user_blk_device_realize()
lead to qemu abort on assert in vhost_dev_get_config().

This happens because vhost_user_blk_disconnect() is postponed but
it should have dropped s->connected flag by the time
vhost_user_blk_device_realize() performs a new connection opening.
On the connection opening, vhost_dev initialization in
vhost_user_blk_connect() relies on s->connection flag and
if it's not dropped, it skips vhost_dev initialization and returns
with success. Then, vhost_user_blk_device_realize()'s execution flow
goes to vhost_dev_get_config() where it's aborted on the assert.

To fix the problem this patch adds immediate cleanup on device
initialization(in vhost_user_blk_device_realize()) using different
event handlers for initialization and operation introduced in the
previous patch.
On initialization (in vhost_user_blk_device_realize()) we fully
control the initialization process. At that point, nobody can use the
device since it isn't initialized and we don't need to postpone any
cleanups, so we can do cleaup right away when there is a communication
problem with the vhost-blk daemon.
On operation we leave it as is, since the disconnect may happen when
the device is in use, so the device users may want to use vhost_dev's data
to do rollback before vhost_dev is re-initialized (e.g. in vhost_dev_set_log()).
