vfio: fix deadlock between group lock and kvm lock



After 51cdc8bc, we have another deadlock scenario between the
kvm->lock and the vfio group_lock with two different codepaths acquiring
the locks in different order.  Specifically in vfio_open_device, vfio
holds the vfio group_lock when issuing device->ops->open_device but some
drivers (like vfio-ap) need to acquire kvm->lock during their open_device
routine;  Meanwhile, kvm_vfio_release will acquire the kvm->lock first
before calling vfio_file_set_kvm which will acquire the vfio group_lock.

To resolve this, let's remove the need for the vfio group_lock from the
kvm_vfio_release codepath.  This is done by introducing a new spinlock to
protect modifications to the vfio group kvm pointer, and acquiring a kvm
ref from within vfio while holding this spinlock, with the reference held
until the last close for the device in question.
