evtchn: evtchn_reset() may not succeed with still-open ports

While the function closes all ports, it does so without holding any
lock, and hence racing requests may be issued causing new ports to get
opened. This would have been problematic in particular if such a newly
opened port had a port number above the new implementation limit (i.e.
when switching from FIFO to 2-level) after the reset, as prior to
"evtchn: relax port_is_valid()" this could have led to e.g.
evtchn_close()'s "BUG_ON(!port_is_valid(d2, port2))" to trigger.

Introduce a counter of active ports and check that it's (still) no
larger then the number of Xen internally used ones after obtaining the
necessary lock in evtchn_reset().

As to the access model of the new {active,xen}_evtchns fields - while
all writes get done using write_atomic(), reads ought to use
read_atomic() only when outside of a suitably locked region.

Note that as of now evtchn_bind_virq() and evtchn_bind_ipi() don't have
a need to call check_free_port().

This is part of XSA-343.
