Currently the vdpa device is unregistered after the workqueue that
processes vq commands is disabled. However, the device unregister
process can still send commands to the cvq (a vlan delete for example)
which leads to a hang because the handing workqueue has been disabled
and the command never finishes:

The fix is to disable and destroy the workqueue after the device
unregister. It is expected that vhost will not trigger kicks after
the unregister. But even if it would, the wq is disabled already by
setting the pointer to NULL (done so in the referenced commit).
