Covscan reported:

 2. dpdk-21.11/lib/vhost/socket.c:852: lock_acquire: Calling function
	"pthread_mutex_lock" acquires lock "vhost_user.mutex".
23. dpdk-21.11/lib/vhost/socket.c:955: sleep: Call to
	"vhost_user_reconnect_init" might sleep while holding lock
	"vhost_user.mutex".
 #   953|   		vsocket->reconnect =
	!(flags & RTE_VHOST_USER_NO_RECONNECT);
 #   954|   		if (vsocket->reconnect && reconn_tid == 0) {
 #   955|-> 			if (vhost_user_reconnect_init() != 0)
 #   956|   				goto out_mutex;
 #   957|   		}

The reason for this warning is that vhost_user_reconnect_init() creates a
ctrl thread and calls nanosleep waiting for this thread to be ready,
while vhost_user.mutex is taken.

Move the call to vhost_user_reconnect_init() out of this mutex.

While at it, a pthread_t value should be considered opaque.
Instead of relying reconn_tid == 0, use an internal flag in
vhost_user_reconnect_init().

Coverity issue: 373686
Bugzilla ID: 981
Fixes: e623e0c6d8a5 ("vhost: add reconnect ability")

Should we make reconn_tid not a global variable anymore then?
Maybe a static pthread_t in vhost_user_reconnect_init?

Thanks,

Changes since v1:
- moved reconn_tid in vhost_user_reconnect_init as this
  variable is not used anywhere else,

Yep, I just sent a v2.

This would not be thread safe.
Perhaps use a pthread condition variable instead of spinning here.
