KVM: switch irq injection/acking data structures to irq_lock

Browse Source 
Protect irq injection/acking data structures with a separate irq_lock
mutex. This fixes the following deadlock:

CPU A                               CPU B
kvm_vm_ioctl_deassign_dev_irq()
  mutex_lock(&kvm->lock);            worker_thread()
  -> kvm_deassign_irq()                -> kvm_assigned_dev_interrupt_work_handler()
    -> deassign_host_irq()               mutex_lock(&kvm->lock);
      -> cancel_work_sync() [blocked]
