>
> When eth_virtio_dev_init is failed, the registered virtio user memory event
> cb is not released and the backend created tap device is not destroyed.
> It would cause some residual tap device existed in the host and creating
> a new vdev could be failed because the new virtio_user_dev could use the
> same address pointer and register memory event cb to the same address is
> not allowed.
