[PATCH v3 09/13] KVM: Disallow binding multiple irqfds to an eventfd with a priority waiter



Disallow binding an irqfd to an eventfd that already has a priority waiter,
i.e. to an eventfd that already has an attached irqfd.  KVM always
operates in exclusive mode for EPOLL_IN (unconditionally returns '1'),
i.e. only the first waiter will be notified.

KVM already disallows binding multiple irqfds to an eventfd in a single
VM, but doesn't guard against multiple VMs binding to an eventfd.  Adding
the extra protection reduces the pain of a userspace VMM bug, e.g. if
userspace fails to de-assign before re-assigning when transferring state
for intra-host migration, then the migration will explicitly fail as
opposed to dropping IRQs on the destination VM.

Temporarily keep KVM's manual check on irqfds.items, but add a WARN, e.g.
to allow sanity checking the waitqueue enforcement.
