[PATCH 07/12] evtchn: cut short evtchn_reset()'s loop in the common case



The general expectation is that there are only a few open ports left
when a domain asks its event channel configuration to be reset.
Similarly on average half a bucket worth of event channels can be
expected to be inactive. Try to avoid iterating over all channels, by
utilizing usage data we're maintaining anyway.
