xen/events: Fix race in set_evtchn_to_irq
There is a TOCTOU issue in set_evtchn_to_irq. Rows in the evtchn_to_irq mapping are lazily allocated in this function. The check whether the row is already present and the row initialization is not synchronized. Two threads can at the same time allocate a new row for evtchn_to_irq and add the irq mapping to the their newly allocated row. One thread will overwrite what the other has set for evtchn_to_irq[row] and therefore the irq mapping is lost. This will trigger a BUG_ON later in bind_evtchn_to_cpu: INFO: pci 0000:1a:15.4: [1d0f:8061] type 00 class 0x010802 INFO: nvme 0000:1a:12.1: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) INFO: nvme nvme77: 1/0/0 default/read/poll queues CRIT: kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events/events_base.c:427!

The row is now cleared before writing it to evtchn_to_irq in order to not create a race once the row is visible for other threads. While at it, do not require the page to be zeroed, because it will be overwritten with -1's in clear_evtchn_to_irq_row anyway.
