xen/blktap: fix locking

blktap_read_ufe_ring() invalidating the mmap index of a request could
race with blktap_clear_pte() reading it. Move the invalidation into
the info->mm->mmap_sem protected region in fast_flush_area(), noting
that doing this on the failure path of dispatch_rw_block_io() is
benign.
