Use vgpu_lock instead of KVM's mmu_lock to protect accesses to the hash
table used to track which gfns are write-protected when shadowing the
guest's GTT, and hoist the acquisition of vgpu_lock from
intel_vgpu_page_track_handler() out to its sole caller,
kvmgt_page_track_write().
This fixes a bug where kvmgt_page_track_write(), which doesn't hold
kvm->mmu_lock, could race with intel_gvt_page_track_remove() and trigger
a use-after-free.
Fixing kvmgt_page_track_write() by taking kvm->mmu_lock is not an option
as mmu_lock is a r/w spinlock, and intel_vgpu_page_track_handler() might
sleep when acquiring vgpu->cache_lock deep down the callstack:
intel_vgpu_page_track_handler()
|
|-> page_track->handler / ppgtt_write_protection_handler()
|
|-> ppgtt_handle_guest_write_page_table_bytes()
|
|-> ppgtt_handle_guest_write_page_table()
|
|-> ppgtt_handle_guest_entry_removal()
|
|-> ppgtt_invalidate_pte()
|
|-> intel_gvt_dma_unmap_guest_page()
|
|-> mutex_lock(&vgpu->cache_lock);

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
