Rather than allocating/freeing a piece of memory every time we try to figure out how long a CCW chain is, let's use a piece of memory allocated for each device. The io_mutex added with commit 4f766173 ("vfio-ccw: protect the I/O region") is held for the duration of the VFIO_CCW_EVENT_IO_REQ event that accesses/uses this space, so there should be no race concerns with another CPU attempting an (unexpected) SSCH for the same device.
