We recently moved the teardown of the vgic part of a vcpu inside a critical section guarded by the config_lock. This teardown phase involves calling into kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev(), which takes the kvm->srcu lock. However, this violates the established order where kvm->srcu is taken on a memory fault (such as an MMIO access), possibly followed by taking the config_lock if the GIC emulation requires mutual exclusion from the other vcpus. It therefore results in a bad lockdep splat, as reported by Zenghui. Fix this by moving the call to kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev() outside of the config_lock critical section. At this stage, there shouln't be any need to hold the config_lock. As an additional bonus, document the ordering between kvm->slots_lock, kvm->srcu and kvm->arch.config_lock so that I cannot pretend I didn't know about those anymore.
