This may trigger a AB BA dead lock.  In aer_inject_exit, the lock
sequence is:

inject_lock -> pci_lock

In pci config read/write path, the lock sequence is:

pci_lock -> inject_lock

With lockdep enabled, you may found warning on that.

OK, I will carry out a detailed test with lockdep enabled, and try to improve this patch.
Thanks for review and comments!
