KVM: kill file->f_count abuse in kvm
Use kvm own refcounting instead of playing with ->filp->f_count.
That will allow to get rid of a lot of crap in anon_inode_getfd() and
kill a race in kvm_dev_ioctl_create_vm() (file might have been closed
immediately by another thread, so ->filp might point to already freed
struct file when we get around to setting it).
