[PATCH v1] virt: acrn: Don't free a VM the hypervisor refused to destroy

[Yuho Choi <oss.patchbox@gmail.com>]

acrn_dev_release() calls acrn_vm_destroy() and then frees the VM
whether or not it was destroyed.

Since commit 4c4c1257b844 ("virt: acrn: Do hcall_destroy_vm() before
resource release"), acrn_vm_destroy() returns early when
hcall_destroy_vm() fails, so that the VM can be destroyed again later.
The VM then stays on acrn_vm_list, and its ioreq clients and irqfds
still point to it. That commit names a real-time VM as a case where the
hypervisor refuses, since it can keep running without the Service VM.
The hypervisor also only destroys a paused VM, so the same happens when
the device model exits without pausing the VM.

Once the VM is freed, ioreq_dispatcher() still walks acrn_vm_list on
the next I/O request notification and dereferences the freed VM.

Leak the VM instead when it could not be destroyed.

Compile-tested only (x86_64 defconfig with ACRN_HSM, W=1); I have no
ACRN setup to test it on.
