We del vqs when:

1) fail to probe the device
2) device removal
3) freeze before suspend

In both cases, the device has been stopped. And in 1 and 2 we are about
to free the device, the per-cpu won't be used any more. For 3, we will
re-initialize the virtqueues during restoring which will call
virtnet_set_affinity() which has been protected by
{get|put}_online_cpus() below.

So looks we could safely remove this.
