The cdev path only supports one bound/open device fd, but
VFIO_DEVICE_BIND_IOMMUFD only checked the per-file access_granted flag
before capturing the KVM file reference. A second fd for the same device
could therefore replace device->kvm, fail later in vfio_df_open()
because open_count is already nonzero, and then clear the active KVM
association during error cleanup.

Reject the bind while holding dev_set->lock if the device is already
open, matching the existing cdev single-open rule before touching the
device-wide KVM state.
