[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.4 64/64] vfio/pci: fix racy on error and request eventfd ctx

From: Zeng Tao <prime.zeng@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit b872d0640840018669032b20b6375a478ed1f923 ]

The vfio_pci_release call will free and clear the error and request
eventfd ctx while these ctx could be in use at the same time in the
function like vfio_pci_request, and it's expected to protect them under
the vdev->igate mutex, which is missing in vfio_pci_release.

This issue is introduced since commit 1518ac272e78 ("vfio/pci: fix memory
leaks of eventfd ctx"),and since commit 5c5866c593bb ("vfio/pci: Clear
error and request eventfd ctx after releasing"), it's very easily to
trigger the kernel panic like this:
