Mark pages accessed before dropping mmu_lock when faulting in guest memory so that RISC-V can convert to kvm_release_faultin_page() without tripping its lockdep assertion on mmu_lock being held. Marking pages accessed outside of mmu_lock is ok (not great, but safe), but marking pages _dirty_ outside of mmu_lock can make filesystems unhappy (see the link below). Do both under mmu_lock to minimize the chances of doing the wrong thing in the future.

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 reStructuredText 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.
