This was the place to call kvm_put_kvm in previous series, but yes,
it's not necessary in current series, will drop it.

kv->lock is not to protect the vfio_group anyway, so being out of the lock
should be safe. But placing set_kvm before acquiring kv->lock will generate
more code in error path, so I guess the better way is to place it after
unlocking. Will reflect that in next version.
