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.
