xen/evtchn: don't do unbind_from_irqhandler under spinlock 

unbind_from_irqhandler can end up doing /proc operations, which can't
happen under a spinlock.  So before removing the IRQ handler,
disable the irq under the port_user lock (masking the underlying event
channel and making sure the irq handler isn't running concurrently and
won't start running), then remove the handler without the lock.
