vfio-pci: Avoid deadlock on remove
If an attempt is made to unbind a device from vfio-pci while that device is in use, the request is blocked until the device becomes unused. Unfortunately, that unbind path still grabs the device_lock, which certain things like __pci_reset_function() also want to take. This means we need to try to acquire the locks ourselves and use the pre-locked version, __pci_reset_function_locked(). Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>
