Unmasking a fifo event channel can result in unmasking it twice, once
directly in the kernel and once via a hypercall in case the event was
pending.
Fix that by doing the local unmask only if the event is not pending.
This is part of XSA-332.
This is upstream commit f01337197419b7e8a492e83089552b77d3b5fb90
