The error number -ENOENT or 0 will be returned, if we can not allocate more memory in function init_vq. If host can support multiple virtual queues, and we fails to allocate necessary memory structures for vq, kernel may crash due to incorrect returning. To fix it, kernel will return correct value in init_vq.
