Subject: [PATCH] vsock: initialize the_virtio_vsock before using VQs

Once VQs are filled with empty buffers and we kick the host, it can send
connection requests. If 'the_virtio_vsock' is not initialized before,
replies are silently dropped and do not reach the host.

Fixes: 0deab087b16a ("vsock/virtio: use RCU to avoid use-after-free on the_virtio_vsock")
