The group notifier that handles the VFIO_GROUP_NOTIFY_SET_KVM event must
use the required locks in proper locking order to dynamically update the
guest's APCB. The proper locking order is:

        1. matrix_dev->guests_lock: required to use the KVM pointer to
           update a KVM guest's APCB.

        2. matrix_mdev->kvm->lock: required to update a KVM guest's APCB.

        3. matrix_dev->mdevs_lock: required to store or access the data
           stored in a struct ap_matrix_mdev instance.

Two macros are introduced to acquire and release the locks in the proper
order. These macros are now used by the group notifier functions.
