KVM: x86: Optimize kvm->lock and SRCU interaction (KVM_X86_SET_MSR_FILTER)
Reduce time spent holding kvm->lock: unlock mutex before calling synchronize_srcu(). There is no need to hold kvm->lock until all vCPUs have been kicked, KVM only needs to guarantee that all vCPUs will switch to the new filter before exiting to userspace.
