tap: clear vhost_net backend on cleanup
Frontends calling tap_get_vhost_net get an invalid pointer after the peer backend has been deleted. Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> reports this leading to a crash in ack_features when we remove the vhost-net bakend of a virtio nic. The fix is simply to clear the backend pointer. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
