[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] vhostuser: fix deadlock when vhost unregister

[sunwenjie <findtheonlyway@gmail.com>]

 When rte_vhost_driver_unregister  delete the connection fd, fdset_try_del will
 always try and donot release the  vhostuser.mutex if the fd is busy, but the
 fdset_event_dispatch will set the  fd to busy and call vhost_user_msg_handler
 to get vhostuser.mutex, which will  cause deadlock. Unlock the vhost_user.mutex
 if fdset_try_del fail and relock it when retry.
