Tonghao Zhang 8b4b949144 vhost: fix dead lock on closing in server mode
When qemu close the unix socket fd of the vhostuser as a
server, and then immediately delete the vhostuser port on
openvswitch. There will be a deadlock.

A thread (fdset event thread):       B thread:
1. fdset_event_dispatch              rte_vhost_driver_unregister
2. set the fd busy to 1.             lock vsocket->conn_mutex
3. vhost_user_read_cb                fdset_del waits busy changed to 0.
4. vhost peer closed, remove the
   conn from vsocket->conn_list:
   lock vsocket->conn_mutex

5. set the fd busy to 0
