Re: [PATCH] vhost: cleanup vq resubmit info when set_inflight_fd

Hi Haoqian,

We try to avoid passing functions or variable names in the commit title.
Maybe something like this would work:
"vhost: cleanup resubmit info before inflight setup"

You need to add "Fixes:" tag pointing to the commit introducing the 
issue, so that it is backported in stable releases.

This is documented in the contribution guidelines if you have any doubt
on the formatting.
