vfio/mdev: Synchronize device create/remove with parent removal
In following sequences, 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
----- -----
mdev_unregister_device()
device_for_each_child()
mdev_device_remove_cb()
mdev_device_remove()
create_store()
mdev_device_create() [...]
device_add()
parent_remove_sysfs_files()
/* BUG: device added by cpu-0
* whose parent is getting removed
* and it won't process this mdev.
*/
issue-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()
parent device removed.
[...]
parents->ops->remove()
/*
* BUG: Accessing invalid parent.
*/
This is similar race like create() racing with mdev_unregister_device().

Therefore, mdev core is improved as below to overcome above issues.
Wait for any ongoing mdev create() and remove() to finish before
unregistering parent device.
This continues to allow multiple create and remove to progress in
parallel for different mdev devices as most common case.
At the same time guard parent removal while parent is being accessed by
create() and remove() callbacks.
create()/remove() and unregister_device() are synchronized by the rwsem.
Refactor device removal code to mdev_device_remove_common() to avoid
acquiring unreg_sem of the parent.
