vhost-vdpa: fix use-after-free of v->config_ctx

When the 'v->config_ctx' eventfd_ctx reference is released we didn't
set it to NULL. So if the same character device (e.g. /dev/vhost-vdpa-0)
is re-opened, the 'v->config_ctx' is invalid and calling again
vhost_vdpa_config_put() causes use-after-free issues like the
following refcount_t underflow:

    refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
    WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 872 at lib/refcount.c:28 refcount_warn_saturate+0xae/0xf0
