and another 'return 0' here :)

I don't like return from multiple places instead I prefer
single exit point from function.

Since the lock is to protect the vq so logically I put it in 'init_vq'
which is eventually called by probe.

I think this function only has initialization and don't have any complex logic.

Right. Changed.

yes. it will be.

vdev->priv is vpmem which is allocated using devm API.
