evtchn-fifo: prevent use after free

evtchn_fifo_init_control() calls evtchn_fifo_destroy() on an error
path, leading to cleanup_event_array() which frees d->evtchn_fifo
without also clearing the pointer. Otoh the bulk of
evtchn_fifo_init_control() is dependent on d->evtchn_fifo being NULL.

This is XSA-188.
