evtchn: check control block exists when using FIFO-based events

When using the FIFO-based event channels, there are no checks for the
existance of a control block when binding an event or moving it to a
different VCPU.  This is because events may be bound when the ABI is
in 2-level mode (e.g., by the toolstack before the domain is started).

The guest may trigger a Xen crash in evtchn_fifo_set_pending() if:

  a) the event is bound to a VCPU without a control block; or
  b) VCPU 0 does not have a control block.

In case (a), Xen will crash when looking up the current queue.  In
(b), Xen will crash when looking up the old queue (which defaults to a
queue on VCPU 0).

By allocating all the per-VCPU structures when enabling the FIFO ABI,
we can be sure that v->evtchn_fifo is always valid.

EVTCHNOP_init_control_block for all the other CPUs need only map the
shared control block.

A single check in evtchn_fifo_set_pending() before accessing the
control block fixes all cases where the guest has not initialized some
control blocks.

This is XSA-107.
