[PATCH v2] vdpa/pds: check virtqueue notify mapping

From: Xiong Weimin

Date: Wed Aug 05 2026 - 20:58:55 EST


vp_modern_map_vq_notify() can fail and return NULL. Check the notify
mapping while adding a pds vDPA device and use the existing teardown path
instead of storing a NULL doorbell pointer in the virtqueue state.
