Right. In the path of kvmgt_page_track_remove_region(),
mutex_lock(&info->vgpu_lock) and  mutex_unlock(&info->vgpu_lock) are
required.

static void kvmgt_page_track_remove_region(gfn_t gfn, unsigned long nr_pages,
                                           struct kvm_page_track_notifier_node *node)
{
        unsigned long i;
        struct intel_vgpu *info =
                container_of(node, struct intel_vgpu, track_node);

        mutex_lock(&info->vgpu_lock);
        for (i = 0; i < nr_pages; i++) {
                if (kvmgt_gfn_is_write_protected(info, gfn + i))
                        kvmgt_protect_table_del(info, gfn + i);
        }
        mutex_unlock(&info->vgpu_lock);
}

The reason I previously could have lockdep_assert_held(&info->vgpu_lock) passed
is that I didn't get LOCKDEP configured, so it's basically a void.
(sorry, though I actually also called mutex_is_locked(&info->vcpu_lock)
in some paths to check lockdep_assert_held() worked properly. But it's my
fault not to double check it's compiled correctly).

Yes, I found intel_vgpu_reset_gtt() has not been called since
ba25d977571e1551b7032d6104e49efd6f88f8ad.
