Michael S. Tsirkin ae4aaf8706 virtio_pci: document why we defer kfree 
commit a1eb03f546 upstream.

The reason we defer kfree until release function is because it's a
general rule for kobjects: kfree of the reference counter itself is only
legal in the release function.

Previous patch didn't make this clear, document this in code.
