vhost_net: handle polling errors when setting backend
Currently, the polling errors were ignored, which can lead following issues: - vhost remove itself unconditionally from waitqueue when stopping the poll, this may crash the kernel since the previous attempt of starting may fail to add itself to the waitqueue - userspace may think the backend were successfully set even when the polling failed. Solve this by: - check poll->wqh before trying to remove from waitqueue - report polling errors in vhost_poll_start(), tx_poll_start(), the return value will be checked and returned when userspace want to set the backend After this fix, there still could be a polling failure after backend is set, it will addressed by the next patch.
