s390/pci: Fix use-after-free race in zpci floating interrupt cleanup

This commit splits directed vectors from floating vectors into a separate
zpci_dibv array and adds RCU synchronization to zpci_msi_teardown_floating()
to prevent use-after-free issues. It also annotates zpci_ibv with __rcu to
ensure safe access to floating vectors during teardown.

[Severity: High]
Does this code leave pending DMA bits on remote CPUs intact?

Only CPU 0's vector is passed to airq_iv_free() here, which clears the
physical vector bits on CPU 0 but leaves them untouched on remote CPUs.

If a hardware adapter interrupt was pending on a remote CPU in
zpci_dibv[N]->vector, the bit remains set. Furthermore, there is no
synchronization (such as synchronize_rcu() or draining) to ensure remote
CPUs have finished processing the old bit before it is freed.

When a new device allocates the same MSI bit, it will overwrite the ptr and
data fields across all CPUs without memory barriers. If a remote CPU then
processes its delayed interrupt, it will read the newly populated ptr and
data, resulting in a spurious interrupt delivered to the wrong device or a
potential kernel panic from an inconsistent domain/hwirq pair.
