Currently, the unknown no-running-vcpu sites are reported when a
dirty page is tracked by mark_page_dirty_in_slot(). Until now, the
only known no-running-vcpu site is saving vgic/its tables through
KVM_DEV_ARM_{VGIC_GRP_CTRL, ITS_SAVE_TABLES} command on KVM device
"kvm-arm-vgic-its". Unfortunately, there are more unknown sites to
be handled and no-running-vcpu context will be allowed in these
sites: (1) KVM_DEV_ARM_{VGIC_GRP_CTRL, ITS_RESTORE_TABLES} command
on KVM device "kvm-arm-vgic-its" to restore vgic/its tables. The
vgic3 LPI pending status could be restored. (2) Save vgic3 pending
table through KVM_DEV_ARM_{VGIC_GRP_CTRL, VGIC_SAVE_PENDING_TABLES}
command on KVM device "kvm-arm-vgic-v3".
In order to handle those unknown cases, we need a unified helper
vgic_write_guest_lock(). struct vgic_dist::save_its_tables_in_progress
is also renamed to struct vgic_dist::save_tables_in_progress.
No functional change intended.

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.
