vhost_scsi_complete_cmd_work() drops the virtqueue mutex before calling
vhost_signal(). VHOST_SET_VRING_CALL replaces call_ctx.ctx and releases the
old eventfd_ctx while holding the same mutex. vhost_signal() reads the call
context before and after vhost_notify(), so a concurrent callfd update can
make it signal a freed context or NULL.
KASAN reported the use through:
eventfd_signal_mask
vhost_signal
vhost_scsi_complete_cmd_work
The context was released through:
eventfd_ctx_put
vhost_vring_ioctl
vhost_scsi_ioctl
Keep the mutex held through vhost_signal() so completion notification and
callfd updates are serialized.
