3.16.60-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" mst@redhat.com
commit 5c60300d68da32ca77f7f978039dc72bfc78b06b upstream.
When out of memory and we can't add ctrl vq buffers, probe fails. Unfortunately the error handling is out of spec: it calls del_vqs without bothering to reset the device first.
To fix, call the full cleanup function in this case.
