[Qemu-devel] [PULL 1/8] virtio-serial-bus: Unset hotplug handler when unrealize

["Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>]

From: Ladi Prosek <lprosek@redhat.com>

Virtio serial device controls the lifetime of virtio-serial-bus and
virtio-serial-bus links back to the device via its hotplug-handler
property. This extra ref-count prevents the device from getting
finalized, leaving the VirtIODevice memory listener registered and
leading to use-after-free later on.

This patch addresses the same issue as Fam Zheng's
"virtio-scsi: Unset hotplug handler when unrealize"
only for a different virtio device.
