I think we can do this in the same function, and turnt he check of
p->eventfd into assertion in kvm_deassign_ioeventfd_idx(). Just like:

---8<---
static inline struct _ioeventfd *
get_ioeventfd(struct kvm *kvm, enum kvm_bus bus_idx,
              struct kvm_ioeventfd *args)
{
        static struct _ioeventfd *_p;
        bool wildcard = !(args->flags & KVM_IOEVENTFD_FLAG_DATAMATCH);

        list_for_each_entry(_p, &kvm->ioeventfds, list)
                if (_p->bus_idx == bus_idx &&
                    _p->addr == args->addr &&
                    (!_p->length || !args->len ||
                     (_p->length == args->len &&
                      (_p->wildcard || wildcard ||
                       _p->datamatch == args->datamatch))))
                        return _p;

        return NULL;
}

kvm_deassign_ioeventfd_idx() {
	...
	p = get_ioeventfd(kvm, bus_idx, args);
	if (p) {
		assert(p->eventfd == eventfd);
		...
	}

---8<----

This may be easier to understand (keep the same logic in assign/deassign).

I will send a formal patch soon.

Thanks,
Zhenyu
