Subject: [PATCH v9 03/15] KVM: xen: mark guest pages dirty with the pfncache lock held

From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@...zon.com>

Sampling gpa and memslot from an unlocked pfncache may yield inconsistent
values so, since there is no problem with calling mark_page_dirty_in_slot()
with the pfncache lock held, relocate the calls in
kvm_xen_update_runstate_guest() and kvm_xen_inject_pending_events()
accordingly.
