KVM: ia64: fix locking order entering guest
Reorder locking as down_read() may return with local interrupts enabled, which means we could go into vti_vcpu_run() with interrupts enabled. This caused random crashes on the Altix as the timer interrupt tried to read a memory mapped clock source, for which the TLB had not yet been reinstated in the exit, before ipsr was retored.
