    KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Hold kvm->lock around call to kvmppc_update_lpcr · cf5f6f31
    Paul Mackerras 提交于
    Commit 468808bd ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Set process table for HPT
    guests on POWER9", 2017-01-30) added a call to kvmppc_update_lpcr()
    which doesn't hold the kvm->lock mutex around the call, as required.
    This adds the lock/unlock pair, and for good measure, includes
    the kvmppc_setup_partition_table() call in the locked region, since
    it is altering global state of the VM.
    
    This error appears not to have any fatal consequences for the host;
    the consequences would be that the VCPUs could end up running with
    different LPCR values, or an update to the LPCR value by userspace
    using the one_reg interface could get overwritten, or the update
    done by kvmhv_configure_mmu() could get overwritten.
