The 'destroy' method is currently used to destroy all devices when the
VM is destroyed after the vCPUs have been freed.
This new KVM ioctl exposes the same KVM device method. It acts as a
software reset of the VM to 'destroy' selected devices when necessary
and perform the required cleanups on the vCPUs. Called with the
kvm->lock.
The 'destroy' method could be improved by returning an error code.
