virtio-blk: Respect werror option for flushes

The werror option now affects not only write requests, but also flush requests.
Previously, it was not possible to stop a VM on a failed flush.

virtio-blk: Fix migration of queued requests

in_sg[].iovec and out_sg[].ioved are pointer to (source) host memory and
therefore invalid after migration. When loading the device state we must

virtio-blk: Fix virtio-blk-s390 to require drive

Move the check from virtio_blk_init_pci(), where it protects only

initializes without a drive. I figure that can lead to null pointer
