[PATCH 0/1] vhost: NULL callback checks

[Kevin Traynor]

Not a normal case, but noticed that setting some callbacks to
NULL in rte_vhost_driver_callback_register() causes a seg fault e.g. [0].

Added missing checks before calling. Alternative fix is to make some
callbacks mandatory and check during register - is that an API change? maybe,
so took simpler approach.

A bit hard to find fixed commit due to the time and amount of
development in vhost code.
