Jia Jia 548d220845 virtio: rtc: tear down old virtqueues before restore
virtio_device_restore() resets the device and restores the negotiated
features before calling ->restore(). viortc_freeze() intentionally
leaves the existing virtqueues in place so the alarm queue can still
wake the system, but viortc_restore() immediately calls
viortc_init_vqs() without first deleting those old queues.

If virtqueue reinitialization fails on virtio-pci, the transport error
path can run vp_del_vqs() against a newly allocated vp_dev->vqs array
while vdev->vqs still contains the old virtqueues. vp_del_vqs() then
looks up queue state through the new array and can dereference a NULL
info pointer in vp_del_vq(), crashing the guest kernel during restore.

This can also happen during a non-faulty reinitialization, when one of
the vp_find_vqs_msix() attempts is unsuccessful before a later attempt
would succeed.

Delete the stale virtqueues before rebuilding them. If restore fails
before virtio_device_ready(), reuse the remove path to stop the device.
Once the device is ready, return errors directly instead of deleting the
virtqueues again.
