[Stable-7.2.14 11/40] hw/virtio: Fix the de-initialization of vhost-user devices

[Michael Tokarev]

From: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>

The unrealize functions of the various vhost-user devices are
calling the corresponding vhost_*_set_status() functions with a
status of 0 to shut down the device correctly.

Now these vhost_*_set_status() functions all follow this scheme:

    bool should_start = virtio_device_should_start(vdev, status);

    if (vhost_dev_is_started(&vvc->vhost_dev) == should_start) {
        return;
    }

    if (should_start) {
        /* ... do the initialization stuff ... */
    } else {
        /* ... do the cleanup stuff ... */
    }

The problem here is virtio_device_should_start(vdev, 0) currently
always returns "true" since it internally only looks at vdev->started
instead of looking at the "status" parameter. Thus once the device
got started once, virtio_device_should_start() always returns true
and thus the vhost_*_set_status() functions return early, without
ever doing any clean-up when being called with status == 0. This
causes e.g. problems when trying to hot-plug and hot-unplug a vhost
user devices multiple times since the de-initialization step is
completely skipped during the unplug operation.

This bug has been introduced in commit 9f6bcfd99f ("hw/virtio: move
vm_running check to virtio_device_started") which replaced

 should_start = status & VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK;

with

 should_start = virtio_device_started(vdev, status);

which later got replaced by virtio_device_should_start(). This blocked
the possibility to set should_start to false in case the status flag
VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK was not set.

Fix it by adjusting the virtio_device_should_start() function to
only consider the status flag instead of vdev->started. Since this
function is only used in the various vhost_*_set_status() functions
for exactly the same purpose, it should be fine to fix it in this
central place there without any risk to change the behavior of other
code.
