OK, I will update the commit message because this code has changed some months 
ago.

OK, you are right, with this patch, the vhost_dev_cleanup will not be
called multiple times now.

I think there is no need to worry about calling vhost_dev_cleanup multiple 
times,
because historically vhost_dev_cleanup has been allowed to be called multiple
times, and looking at the code, it can be found that calling vhost_dev_cleanup
multiple times is indeed safe.

Look this patch:

commit e0547b59dc0ead4c605d3f02d1c8829630a1311b
Author: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lur...@redhat.com>
Date:   Wed Jul 27 01:15:02 2016 +0400

    vhost: make vhost_dev_cleanup() idempotent

    It is called on multiple code path, so make it safe to call several
    times (note: I don't remember a reproducer here, but a function called
    'cleanup' should probably be idempotent in my book)
