[PATCH 5.11 109/601] KVM: Destroy I/O bus devices on unregister failure _after_ syncing SRCU

commit 2ee3757424be7c1cd1d0bbfa6db29a7edd82a250 upstream.

If allocating a new instance of an I/O bus fails when unregistering a
device, wait to destroy the device until after all readers are guaranteed
to see the new null bus. Destroying devices before the bus is nullified
could lead to use-after-free since readers expect the devices on their
reference of the bus to remain valid.
