vfio: Fix group release deadlock commit 811642d8d8a82c0cce8dc2debfdaf23c5a144839 upstream. If vfio_iommu_group_notifier() acquires a group reference and that reference becomes the last reference to the group, then vfio_group_put introduces a deadlock code path where we're trying to unregister from the iommu notifier chain from within a callout of that chain. Use a work_struct to release this reference asynchronously.
