No need to protect open_count with group_rwsem

You should explain why this is a good change as you did in the emails
here, and no cover letter required for single patches
Fixes: 421cfe6596f6 ("vfio: remove VFIO_GROUP_NOTIFY_SET_KVM")


Extra space after fixes line.
No Fixes line for things that are not bugs.

It seems OK but a bit unnecessary.


thanks, Jason. all good suggestions.I'd just want to see the
device->dev_set->lock and the group_rwsem hold/release is
symmetric in the case of err_undo_count is hit in the vfio_device_open().
Just like the order in vfio_device_fops_release().
