KVM/arm64 had the lock ordering backwards on vcpu->mutex and kvm->lock
from the very beginning. One such example is the way vCPU resets are
handled: the kvm->lock is acquired while handling a guest CPU_ON PSCI
call.
Add a dedicated lock to serialize writes to kvm_vcpu_arch::{mp_state,
reset_state}. Promote all accessors of mp_state to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE()
as readers do not acquire the mp_state_lock. While at it, plug yet
another race by taking the mp_state_lock in the KVM_SET_MP_STATE ioctl
handler.
As changes to MP state are now guarded with a dedicated lock, drop the
kvm->lock acquisition from the PSCI CPU_ON path. Similarly, move the
reader of reset_state outside of the kvm->lock and instead protect it
with the mp_state_lock. Note that writes to reset_state::reset have been
demoted to regular stores as both readers and writers acquire the
mp_state_lock.
While the kvm->lock inversion still exists in kvm_reset_vcpu(), at least
now PSCI CPU_ON no longer depends on it for serializing vCPU reset.

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.
