Subject: [PATCH 3.18 109/121] vhost: correctly remove wait queue during poll failure

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit dc6455a71c7fc5117977e197f67f71b49f27baba ]

We tried to remove vq poll from wait queue, but do not check whether
or not it was in a list before. This will lead double free. Fixing
this by switching to use vhost_poll_stop() which zeros poll->wqh after
removing poll from waitqueue to make sure it won't be freed twice.
