Thinking again, I think we should call set_vq_ready() from
qemu/virtio_vdpa etc. after reset to explicitly set ready to false.

The ready indication is not necessairily a reflection of the hardware
queue:

"Virtual queue ready bit
Writing one (0x1) to this register notifies the device that it can
execute requests from this virtual queue. Reading from this register
returns the last value written to it. Both read and write accesses apply
to the queue selected by writing to QueueSel."
