[PATCH v2 3/5] virtio-input: Fix probe failed when modprobe virtio_input

When doing the following test steps, an error was found:
  step 1: modprobe virtio_input succeeded
    # modprobe virtio_input      <-- OK

  step 2: fault injection in input_allocate_device()
    # modprobe -r virtio_input   <-- OK
    # ...

      virtio_input: probe of virtio5 failed with error -12

  step 3: modprobe virtio_input failed
    # modprobe virtio_input       <-- failed
      virtio_input: probe of virtio1 failed with error -2

The root cause of the problem is that the virtqueues are not
stopped on the error handling path when input_allocate_device()
fails in virtinput_probe(), resulting in an error "-ENOENT"
returned in the next modprobe call in setup_vq().

virtio_pci_modern_device uses virtqueues to send or
receive message, and "queue_enable" records whether the
queues are available. In vp_modern_find_vqs(), all queues
will be selected and activated, but once queues are enabled
there is no way to go back except reset.

Fix it by reset virtio device on error handling path. After
virtinput_init_vqs() succeeded, all virtqueues should be
stopped on error handling path.
