Alexey Kardashevskiy 8f6a9f0d06 KVM: PPC: Book3S: Protect kvmppc_gpa_to_ua() with SRCU
kvmppc_gpa_to_ua() accesses KVM memory slot array via
srcu_dereference_check() and this produces warnings from RCU like below.

This extends the existing srcu_read_lock/unlock to cover that
kvmppc_gpa_to_ua() as well.

We did not hit this before as this lock is not needed for the realmode
handlers and hash guests would use the realmode path all the time;
however the radix guests are always redirected to the virtual mode
handlers and hence the warning.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
