vhost/vsock: fix use-after-free in network stack callers
If the network stack calls .send_pkt()/.cancel_pkt() during .release(), a struct vhost_vsock use-after-free is possible. This occurs because .release() does not wait for other CPUs to stop using struct vhost_vsock. Switch to an RCU-enabled hashtable (indexed by guest CID) so that .release() can wait for other CPUs by calling synchronize_rcu(). This also eliminates vhost_vsock_lock acquisition in the data path so it could have a positive effect on performance. This is CVE-2018-14625 "kernel: use-after-free Read in vhost_transport_send_pkt".
