[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] net/virtio-user: fix segfault as features change

[Jianfeng Tan]

Since commit 59fe5e17d930 ("vhost: propagate set features handling error"),
vhost does not allow to set different features without reset.

The virito-user driver fails to reset the device in below commit.

To fix, we send the reset message as stopping the device.

Fixes: c12a26ee209e ("net/virtio-user: fix not properly reset device")
