When guest driver only setup part of queues declared in QEMU, it
would corrupt guest's physical address 0 when using uninitialized
queues in vhost_virtqueue_start.

In AARCH64 virtual machines, the address of system memory starts at
0x40000000 and the address of rom starts at 0. So, when using qemu
with vhost-scsi, it will fail with below error:
qemu-kvm: Error start vhost dev
qemu-kvm: unable to start vhost-scsi: Cannot allocate memory

This patch fix this issue by skipping calling vhost_virtqueue_start
for uninitialized queues.
