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.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
