vhost_vsock_set_features() leaves the device IOTLB attached when
userspace clears VIRTIO_F_ACCESS_PLATFORM. Descriptors can therefore
continue to use translations installed before the feature change,
including HVAs made stale by a later memory table update.
Detach the device IOTLB before acknowledging a feature mask without
ACCESS_PLATFORM. Serialize each virtqueue handoff with its own mutex
while clearing its IOTLB pointer, resetting its metadata cache, and
updating its acknowledged features. Keep the old IOTLB alive until all
virtqueues have dropped their references, then free it.
Also drop queued IOTLB miss messages and wake readers now that the
device no longer accepts IOTLB updates.

VHOST_SET_FEATURES is also used to update logging while a device is
running. When ACCESS_PLATFORM stays enabled, allocating a new empty
IOTLB on every call drops valid translations and forces avoidable
misses.
Initialize the device IOTLB only when one does not already exist.
