CVE-2024-37353

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

virtio: delete vq in vp_find_vqs_msix() when request_irq() fails

When request_irq() fails, error path calls vp_del_vqs(). There, as vq is present in the list, free_irq() is called for the same vector. That causes following splat:

Fix this by calling deleting the current vq when request_irq() fails.
