This ioctl is needed for QEMU's CPR (checkpoint-restore) migration of
the guest with vhost-vsock device. For this to work, we need to reset
the device ownership on the source side by calling RESET_OWNER, and then
claim it on the dest side by calling SET_OWNER. We expect not to lose any
AF_VSOCK connection while this happens.

In vhost_vsock_reset_orphans() we have:
rcu_read_lock();
/* If the peer is still valid, no need to reset connection */
if (vhost_vsock_get(vsk->remote_addr.svm_cid, sock_net(sk))) {
rcu_read_unlock();
return;
}
IIUC we are not removing the guest cid from the hash table, so this
check will be always true, and nothing is done.
So, is this call really useful?
