Now that we have a facility to lock two VMs with deadlock protection, use it for the creation of mirror VMs as well. One of COPY_ENC_CONTEXT_FROM(dst, src) and COPY_ENC_CONTEXT_FROM(src, dst) would always fail, so the combination is nonsensical and it is okay to return -EBUSY if it is attempted. This sidesteps the question of what happens if a VM is MOVE_ENC_CONTEXT_FROM'd at the same time as it is COPY_ENC_CONTEXT_FROM'd: the locking prevents that from happening.

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.
