Subject: [PATCH 0/3] KVM: x86 SRCU bug fix and SRCU hardening

Fix an x86 bug where KVM overwrites vcpu->srcu_idx and can leak an SRCU
lock due to unlocking the wrong index, ultimately causing a hang if/when
KVM attempts to synchronize.

Switch RISC-V to the generic vcpu->srcu_idx, for reasons unknown it has
its own copy and ignores the generic one.

Add helpers with rudimentary detection of illegal vcpu->srcu_idx usage,
the x86 bug would have been incredibly painful to debug had I not known
what to look for (found by a selftest with very specific behavior...
that we recently modified with respect to SRCU).

Non-x86 changes are compile tested only.

Sean Christopherson (3):
  KVM: x86: Don't re-acquire SRCU lock in complete_emulated_io()
  KVM: RISC-V: Use kvm_vcpu.srcu_idx, drop RISC-V's unnecessary copy
  KVM: Add helpers to wrap vcpu->srcu_idx and yell if it's abused
