vhost-user: send SET_STATUS 0 after GET_VRING_BASE
Setting the VIRTIO Device Status Field to 0 resets the device. The device's state is lost, including the vring configuration. vhost-user.c currently sends SET_STATUS 0 before GET_VRING_BASE. This risks confusion about the lifetime of the vhost-user state (e.g. vring last_avail_idx) across VIRTIO device reset. Eugenio Pérez <eperezma@redhat.com> adjusted the order for vhost-vdpa.c in commit c3716f2 ("vdpa: move vhost reset after get vring base") and in that commit description suggested doing the same for vhost-user in the future. Go ahead and adjust vhost-user.c now. I ran various online code searches to identify vhost-user backends implementing SET_STATUS. It seems only DPDK implements SET_STATUS and Yajun Wu <yajunw@nvidia.com> has confirmed that it is safe to make this change.
