KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Protect updates to spapr_tce_tables list

Al Viro pointed out that while one thread of a process is executing
in kvm_vm_ioctl_create_spapr_tce(), another thread could guess the
file descriptor returned by anon_inode_getfd() and close() it before
the first thread has added it to the kvm->arch.spapr_tce_tables list.
That highlights a more general problem: there is no mutual exclusion
between writers to the spapr_tce_tables list, leading to the
possibility of the list becoming corrupted, which could cause a
host kernel crash.

To fix the mutual exclusion problem, we add a mutex_lock/unlock
pair around the list_del_rce in kvm_spapr_tce_release().  Also,
this moves the call to anon_inode_getfd() inside the region
protected by the kvm->lock mutex, after we have done the check for
a duplicate LIOBN.  This means that if another thread does guess the
file descriptor and closes it, its call to kvm_spapr_tce_release()
will not do any harm because it will have to wait until the first
thread has released kvm->lock.  With this, there are no failure
points in kvm_vm_ioctl_create_spapr_tce() after the call to
anon_inode_getfd().

The other things that the second thread could do with the guessed
file descriptor are to mmap it or to pass it as a parameter to a
KVM_DEV_VFIO_GROUP_SET_SPAPR_TCE ioctl on a KVM device fd.  An mmap
call won't cause any harm because kvm_spapr_tce_mmap() and
kvm_spapr_tce_fault() don't access the spapr_tce_tables list or
the kvmppc_spapr_tce_table.list field, and the fields that they do use
have been properly initialized by the time of the anon_inode_getfd()
call.

The KVM_DEV_VFIO_GROUP_SET_SPAPR_TCE ioctl calls
kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group(), which scans the spapr_tce_tables
list looking for the kvmppc_spapr_tce_table struct corresponding to
the fd given as the parameter.  Either it will find the new entry
or it won't; if it doesn't, it just returns an error, and if it
does, it will function normally.  So, in each case there is no
harmful effect.
