> 
> Since the Vhost-user device initialization has been reworked,

> happened on queue pairs other than the first one since
> numa_realloc() was returning early if the device was running.

> This patch fixes this issue by only preventing the device
> metadata to be allocated if the device is running. For the
> virtqueues, a vring state change notification is sent to
