mshv_irqfd_deactivate() and the hlist traversal of pt_irqfds_list
require pt->pt_irqfds_lock to be held, but mshv_irqfd_deassign()
omits it. This races with the EPOLLHUP path in mshv_irqfd_wakeup(),
which does take the lock before calling mshv_irqfd_deactivate().

Additionally, mshv_irqfd_deactivate() uses hlist_del() which poisons
the node pointers rather than resetting them. Since
mshv_irqfd_is_active() relies on hlist_unhashed() (checks pprev ==
NULL), a poisoned node still appears active. If a concurrent path calls
mshv_irqfd_deactivate() again on the same irqfd, the guard fails to
prevent a double hlist_del() on poisoned pointers.

Fix both issues:
- Add the missing spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq around the list
  traversal in mshv_irqfd_deassign(), matching mshv_irqfd_release().
- Use hlist_del_init() instead of hlist_del() so the node is properly
  marked as unhashed after removal, making the is_active guard reliable.
