KVM: eventfd: Fix lock order inversion. When registering a new irqfd, we call its ->poll method to collect any event that might have previously been pending so that we can trigger it. This is done under the kvm->irqfds.lock, which means the eventfd's ctx lock is taken under it. However, if we get a POLLHUP in irqfd_wakeup, we will be called with the ctx lock held before getting the irqfds.lock to deactivate the irqfd, causing lockdep to complain. Calling the ->poll method does not really need the irqfds.lock, so let's just move it after we've given up the irqfds.lock in kvm_irqfd_assign().
