vfio: Move "device->open_count--" out of group_rwsem in vfio_device_open()
We do not protect the vfio_device::open_count with group_rwsem elsewhere (see vfio_device_fops_release as a comparison, where we already drop group_rwsem before open_count--). So move the group_rwsem unlock prior to open_count--. This change now also drops group_rswem before setting device->kvm = NULL, but that's also OK (again, just like vfio_device_fops_release). The setting of device->kvm before open_device is technically done while holding the group_rwsem, this is done to protect the group kvm value we are copying from, and we should not be relying on that to protect the contents of device->kvm; instead we assume this value will not change until after the device is closed and while under the dev_set->lock.
