[PATCH] vdpa/mlx5: fix unregister kick handler order

The mlx5_vdpa_virtq_kick_handler function may still be running and waiting
on virtq->virtq_lock while mlx5_vdpa_cqe_event_unset function is trying to
re-initialize the virtq->virtq_lock.

This causes mlx5_vdpa_virtq_kick_handler thread can't be wake up and can't
be unregister. Following print may loop forever when calling
rte_vhost_driver_unregister(socket_path):

    mlx5_vdpa: Try again to unregister fd 154 of virtq 11 interrupt
    mlx5_vdpa: Try again to unregister fd 154 of virtq 11 interrupt
    ...

The fix is to move mlx5_vdpa_virtq_unregister_intr_handle before
mlx5_vdpa_cqe_event_unset.
