From: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 0e7174b9d5877130fec41fb4a16e0c2ee4958d44 ] A common pattern for device reset is currently: vdev->config->reset(vdev); .. cleanup .. reset prevents new interrupts from arriving and waits for interrupt handlers to finish. However if - as is common - the handler queues a work request which is flushed during the cleanup stage, we have code adding buffers / trying to get buffers while device is reset. Not good. This was reproduced by running modprobe virtio_console modprobe -r virtio_console in a loop. Fix this up by calling virtio_break_device + flush before reset.
