Generally a driver should finish all the device configurations first then notify the HW for data processing.
Without this fix, the potential problems are:
1. If the device is not clearly reset by the previous driver and holds some invalid ring addr, and the vDPA relay thread kicks it, a bad DMA request may happen.
2. The notify_addr which is used by the relay thread is set in the vdpa_ifcvf_start function. If there's really a kick relay before vdpa_ifcvf_start finishes, a null addr is accessed.
Would add the description in the commit log in v2.
Thanks for the comment,
Xiao

Could you help describe what problem is without this fix in commit log?
