Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] KVM: irqfd: Make resampler_list an RCU list
Date:   Thu, 18 Aug 2022 22:27:00 +0200

It is useful to be able to do read-only traversal of the list of all the
registered irqfd resamplers without locking the resampler_lock mutex.
In particular, we are going to traverse it to search for a resampler
registered for the given irq of an irqchip, and that will be done with
an irqchip spinlock (ioapic->lock) held, so it is undesirable to lock a
mutex in this context. So turn this list into an RCU list.

For protecting the read side, reuse kvm->irq_srcu which is already used
for protecting a number of irq related things (kvm->irq_routing,
irqfd->resampler->list, kvm->irq_ack_notifier_list,
kvm->arch.mask_notifier_list).
