From: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@de.ibm.com>

Switching to vring caches exposed an existing bug in
virtio_queue_set_notification(): We can't access vring structures
if they have not been set up yet. This may happen, for example,
for virtio-blk devices with multiple queues: The code will try to
switch notifiers for every queue, but the guest may have only set up
a subset of them.

Fix this by guarding access to the vring memory by checking for
vring.desc. The first aio poll will iron out any remaining
inconsistencies for later-configured queues (buggy legacy drivers).
