Subject: [PATCH v4 10/26] KVM: Drop kvm_count_lock and instead protect kvm_usage_count with kvm_lock

From: Isaku Yamahata <isaku.yamahata@...el.com>

Because kvm_count_lock unnecessarily complicates the KVM locking convention
Drop kvm_count_lock and instead protect kvm_usage_count with kvm_lock for
simplicity.  kvm_arch_hardware_enable/disable() callbacks depend on
non-preemptiblity with the spin lock.  Add preempt_disable/enable()
around hardware enable/disable callback to keep the assumption.

Opportunistically add some comments on locking.
