During the process of hot-unplug in vhost-user-net NIC, vhost_user_cleanup
may add same rcu node to rcu list. Function calls are as follows:

vhost_user_cleanup
    ->vhost_user_host_notifier_remove
        ->call_rcu(n, vhost_user_host_notifier_free, rcu);
    ->g_free_rcu(n, rcu);

When this happens, QEMU will abort in try_dequeue:

if (head == &dummy && qatomic_mb_read(&tail) == &dummy.next) {
    abort();
}

Backtrace is as follows:
0  __pthread_kill_implementation () at /usr/lib64/libc.so.6
1  raise () at /usr/lib64/libc.so.6
2  abort () at /usr/lib64/libc.so.6
3  try_dequeue () at ../util/rcu.c:235
4  call_rcu_thread (0) at ../util/rcu.c:288
5  qemu_thread_start (0) at ../util/qemu-thread-posix.c:541
6  start_thread () at /usr/lib64/libc.so.6
7  clone3 () at /usr/lib64/libc.so.6

Reason for the abort is that adding two identical nodes to the rcu list will
cause it becomes a ring. After dummy node is added to the tail of the list in
try_dequeue, the ring is opened. But lead to a situation that only one node is
added to list and rcu_call_count is added twice. This will cause try_dequeue
abort.

This issue happens when n->addr != 0 in vhost_user_host_notifier_remove. It can
happens in a hotplug stress test with a 32queue vhost-user-net type NIC.
Because n->addr is set in VHOST_USER_BACKEND_VRING_HOST_NOTIFIER_MSG function.
during device hotplug process and it is cleared in vhost_dev_stop during device
hot-unplug. Since VHOST_USER_BACKEND_VRING_HOST_NOTIFIER_MSG is a message sent
by DPDK to qemu, it is asynchronous. So, there is no guaranteed order between
the two processes of setting n->addr and clearing n->addr. If setting n->addr
in hotplug occurs after clearing n->addr in hotunplug, the issue will occur.
So, it is necessary to merge g_free_rcu and vhost_user_host_notifier_free into
one rcu node.

Fixes: 503e355465 ("virtio/vhost-user: dynamically assign VhostUserHostNotifiers")

V1->V2:
    add n->addr check in vhost_user_get_vring_base and vhost_user_backend_handle_vring_host_notifier
    to prevent submit same node to rcu list.
