VMCI feature is not supported in conjunction with the vSphere Fault
Tolerance (FT) feature.
VMware Tools can repeatedly try to create a vsock connection. If FT is
enabled the kernel logs is flooded with the following messages:
qp_alloc_hypercall result = -20
Could not attach to queue pair with -20
"qp_alloc_hypercall result = -20" was hidden by commit e8266c4c3307
("VMCI: Stop log spew when qp allocation isn't possible"), but "Could
not attach to queue pair with -20" is still there flooding the log.
Since the error message can be useful in some cases, print it only once.
Fixes: d021c344051a ("VSOCK: Introduce VM Sockets")
