This patch fixes a bug where vhost_verify_ring_mappings() could be
called after vhost_dev_unassign_memory() has been called during
vhost_set_memory(..., add=false).

This appears to be fallout from when dev->started = true assignment
occurs before vhost_set_memory(..., add=false) is called in:

Sorry, I NAK'd this already.
Is a memory including the rings unassigned then?
How can this happen?
We need to debug wht's going on here.
