virtio: Always reset vhost devices
Requiring `vhost_started` to be true for resetting vhost devices in `virtio_reset()` seems like the wrong condition: Most importantly, the preceding `virtio_set_status(vdev, 0)` call will (for vhost devices) end up in `vhost_dev_stop()` (through vhost devices' `.set_status` implementations), setting `vdev->vhost_started = false`. Therefore, the gated `vhost_reset_device()` call is unreachable. `vhost_started` is not documented, so it is hard to say what exactly it is supposed to mean, but judging from the fact that `vhost_dev_start()` sets it and `vhost_dev_stop()` clears it, it seems like it indicates whether there is a vhost back-end, and whether that back-end is currently running and processing virtio requests. Making a reset conditional on whether the vhost back-end is processing virtio requests seems wrong; in fact, it is probably better to reset it only when it is not currently processing requests, which is exactly the current order of operations in `virtio_reset()`: First, the back-end is stopped through `virtio_set_status(vdev, 0)`, then we want to send a reset. Therefore, we should drop the `vhost_started` condition, but in its stead we then have to verify that we can indeed send a reset to this vhost device, by not just checking `k->get_vhost != NULL` (introduced by commit 95e1019a4a9), but also that the vhost back-end is connected (`hdev = k->get_vhost(); hdev != NULL && hdev->vhost_ops != NULL`).
