[PATCH] KVM: arm64: vgic: Use list_del_rcu() when flushing pending LPIs

vgic_v3_fold_lr_state() walks the ap_list from last_lr_irq without holding
the ap_list_lock, relying on vgic_irq being freed via kfree_rcu() and on
interrupts being disabled. vgic_flush_pending_lpis() removes entries with
list_del(), which clobbers a node's next pointer, so when another vCPU
disables LPIs via GICR_CTLR the walk can follow the clobbered next pointer
from a removed node, or from the node that last_lr_irq points to.
Remove entries with list_del_rcu() so that the next pointer stays valid
until the walk completes.
