Re: [PATCH] virtio_ring: add an error code check in virtqueue_resize

From: Xuan Zhuo

If any error happens, this function should restore to the old status.

So, whether the err is true, we should goto the virtqueue_enable_after_reset().

If the err is true, that mean the resize new quuee failed, but the queue
status has restored to the old status.

We should ignore the return value of the virtuqueue_resize_xxx().

Do you find other error in the virtuqueue_resize_xxx().

Thanks.
