Currently, accessing the I/O handlers does not require to take a lock
because new handlers are always added at the end of the array. In a
follow-up patch, this array will be sort to optimize the look up.

Given that most of the time the I/O handlers will not be modify,
using a spinlock will add contention when multiple vCPU are accessing
the emulated MMIOs. So use a read-write lock to protected the handlers.

Finally, take the opportunity to re-indent correctly domain_io_init.

The indentation changes was very small and I did not feel it was 
necessary to have a separate patch for it. I tend to limit the number of 
patches unless it hides important changes.

Anyway, I will try to split coding style changes and functional changes 
in the future.

Thank you!
