Syzroot reports crash in kvm_irqfd_assign() is caused by use-after-free.
Because kvm_irqfd_assign() and kvm_irqfd_deassign() can't run in parallel
for one specific eventfd. When assign path hasn't been finished after irqfd
has been added to kvm->irqfds.items list, another thead may deassign the
eventfd and free struct kvm_kernel_irqfd(). This causes assign path still
uses struct kvm_kernel_irqfd freed by deassign path. To avoid such issue,
make irqfd's reference under kvm->irq_srcu protection after irqfd added to
kvm->irqfds.iterms list and call synchronize_srcu() in irq_shutdown() to
make sure that irqfd has been fully initialized in the assign path.
