[PATCH 5.10 021/157] vhost-vdpa: fix use-after-free of v->config_ctx

commit f6bbf0010ba004f5e90c7aefdebc0ee4bd3283b9 upstream.

When the 'v->config_ctx' eventfd_ctx reference is released we didn't
set it to NULL. So if the same character device (e.g. /dev/vhost-vdpa-0)
is re-opened, the 'v->config_ctx' is invalid and calling again
vhost_vdpa_config_put() causes use-after-free issues like the
following refcount_t underflow:

refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
