[PATCH] KVM: arm64: Fix circular locking dependency

The rule inside kvm enforces that the vcpu->mutex is taken *inside*
kvm->lock. The rule is violated by the pkvm_create_hyp_vm which acquires
the kvm->lock while already holding the vcpu->mutex lock from
kvm_vcpu_ioctl. Follow the rule by taking the config lock while getting the
VM handle and make sure that this is cleaned on VM destroy under the
same lock.
