vp_vdpa_reset() writes 0 to device_status and returns success right
away. The virtio specification requires the driver to wait until a read
of device_status returns 0 before reinitializing the device, and
virtio_pci_modern's vp_reset() does exactly that: the read-back flushes
the posted status write and any in-flight device writes, including
MSI-X messages.
Without it, vhost-vdpa (or virtio-vdpa) can go on to tear down the
IOTLB/IOMMU mappings or reprogram the queues while the device has not
yet finished its reset, and may still be DMAing to the old virtqueue
addresses. The MSI-X vectors are also freed while an interrupt from
the old configuration may still be in flight.
Poll device_status after writing 0, in the same way as vp_reset(),
before freeing the IRQs and returning.

- [High] vdpa: infinite wait in vp_vdpa_reset() on surprise removal

vdpa/vp_vdpa: Wait for device reset to complete
This commit modifies vp_vdpa_reset() to poll the device status after writing
0, waiting for it to become 0. This ensures the device reset completes before
tearing down IOTLB/IOMMU mappings or freeing IRQs.

[Severity: High]
Could this unbounded wait cause an infinite loop during a surprise removal?
If the underlying PCI device undergoes a surprise removal (hot-unplug) or a
fatal bus error, memory-mapped I/O reads via vp_modern_get_status() will
persistently return all-ones (0xFF).
Since there is no timeout or explicit check for the 0xFF PCIe disconnect
state, could this lead to a permanent kernel thread hang in uninterruptible
sleep?
