This patch refactor's the vfio_ap device driver to use the AP bus's
ap_get_qdev() function to retrieve the vfio_ap_queue struct containing
information about a queue that is bound to the vfio_ap device driver.
The bus's ap_get_qdev() function retrieves the queue device from a
hashtable keyed by APQN. This is much more efficient than looping over
the list of devices attached to the AP bus by several orders of
magnitude.

Here we did not hold a mutex in the old code

here we do. Why do we need the matrix_dev->lock here?

You are correct, we don't need it here; but, we will need it
in a subsequent patch where we introduce linking the
q to the matrix mdev to which it is assigned. Perhaps
the locking should be introduced in that patch.
