During fuzzing, a general protection fault is observed in
vmci_host_poll().
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000019: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN

Example thread interleaving that causes the general protection fault
is as follows:
CPU1 (vmci_host_poll) CPU2 (vmci_host_do_init_context)
----- -----
// Read uninitialized context
context = vmci_host_dev->context;
// Initialize context
vmci_host_dev->context = vmci_ctx_create();
vmci_host_dev->ct_type = VMCIOBJ_CONTEXT;
if (vmci_host_dev->ct_type == VMCIOBJ_CONTEXT) {
// Dereferencing the wrong pointer
poll_wait(..., &context->host_context);
}
In this scenario, vmci_host_poll() reads vmci_host_dev->context first,
and then reads vmci_host_dev->ct_type to check that
vmci_host_dev->context is initialized. However, since these two reads
are not atomically executed, there is a chance of a race condition as
described above.
To fix this race condition, read vmci_host_dev->context after checking
the value of vmci_host_dev->ct_type so that vmci_host_poll() always
reads an initialized context.
