The mdev remove callback for the vfio_ap device driver bails out with -EBUSY if the mdev is in use by a KVM guest (i.e., the KVM pointer in the struct ap_matrix_mdev is not NULL). The intended purpose was to prevent the mdev from being removed while in use. There are two problems with this scenario: 1. Returning a non-zero return code from the remove callback does not prevent the removal of the mdev. 2. The KVM pointer in the struct ap_matrix_mdev will always be NULL because the remove callback will not get invoked until the mdev fd is closed. When the mdev fd is closed, the mdev release callback is invoked and clears the KVM pointer from the struct ap_matrix_mdev. Let's go ahead and remove the check for KVM in the remove callback and allow the cleanup of mdev resources to proceed.
