Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.6 3/3] xen: privcmd: Switch from mutex to spinlock for irqfds

From: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@...aro.org>

[ Upstream commit 1c682593096a487fd9aebc079a307ff7a6d054a3 ]

irqfd_wakeup() gets EPOLLHUP, when it is called by
eventfd_release() by way of wake_up_poll(&ctx->wqh, EPOLLHUP), which
gets called under spin_lock_irqsave(). We can't use a mutex here as it
will lead to a deadlock.

Fix it by switching over to a spin lock.
