In vhost_svq_poll(), if vhost_svq_get_buf() fails due to a device
providing invalid descriptors, len is left uninitialized and returned
to the caller, potentally leaking stack data or causing undefined
behavior.
Fix this by initializing len to 0.
Found with GCC 13 and -fanalyzer (abridged):

Note by Laurent Vivier <lvivier@redhat.com>:
The return value is only used to detect an error:
vhost_svq_poll
vhost_vdpa_net_cvq_add
vhost_vdpa_net_load_cmd
vhost_vdpa_net_load_mac
-> a negative return is only used to detect error
vhost_vdpa_net_load_mq
-> a negative return is only used to detect error
vhost_vdpa_net_handle_ctrl_avail
-> a negative return is only used to detect error
