Subject: [PATCHv1 7/7] vfio/mdev: Fix race conditions with mdev device life cycle APIs

Below race condition and call trace exist with current device life cycle
sequence.

1. In following sequence, child devices created while removing mdev parent
device can be left out, or it may lead to race of removing half
initialized child mdev devices.

issue-1:
--------
       cpu-0                         cpu-1
       -----                         -----

                                     device_for_each_child()
                                        mdev_device_remove_cb()
                                            mdev_device_remove()
create_store()
  mdev_device_create()                   [...]
       device_register()
                                  parent_remove_sysfs_files()
                                  /* BUG: device added by cpu-0
                                   * whose parent is getting removed.
                                   */

issue-2:

       cpu-0                         cpu-1
       -----                         -----

       [...]                      mdev_unregister_device()
                                     device_for_each_child()
                                        mdev_device_remove_cb()
                                            mdev_device_remove()

       mdev_create_sysfs_files()
       /* BUG: create is adding
        * sysfs files for a device
        * which is undergoing removal.
        */
                                 parent_remove_sysfs_files()

2. Below crash is observed when user initiated remove is in progress
and mdev_unregister_driver() completes parent unregistration.

       cpu-0                         cpu-1
       -----                         -----
remove_store()
   mdev_device_remove()
   active = false;
                                  mdev_unregister_device()
                                    remove type
   [...]
   mdev_remove_ops() crashes.

This is similar race like create() racing with mdev_unregister_device().

Therefore, mdev core is improved to overcome above issues.

Wait for any ongoing mdev create() and remove() to finish before
unregistering parent device using srcu. This continues to allow multiple
create and remove to progress in parallel. At the same time guard parent
removal while parent is being access by create() and remove callbacks.

mdev_device_remove() is refactored to not block on srcu when device is
removed as part of parent removal.
