KVM protects the device list with SRCU, and therefore different calls to kvm_io_bus_read()/kvm_io_bus_write() can very well see different incarnations of kvm->buses. If userspace unregisters a device while vCPUs are running there is no well-defined result. This patch applies a safe fallback by returning early from emulator_pio_in_out(). This corresponds to returning zeroes from IN, and dropping the writes on the floor for OUT.
