This is not specific to KvmTool/running as a guest. This can be reproduced
on an Ampere Altra for instance. KvmTool is mentioned here because this
was used as the test environment.

This is a mistake. raw_spin_lock_irqsave() would fit perfectly.

I think this is necessary to avoid 'possible irq lock inversion' at the
end of the message.
