Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] vhost: Cleanup

This is suggested by Michael S. Tsirkin according to [1] and the goal
is to apply smp_rmb() inside vhost_get_avail_idx() if needed. With it,
the caller of the function needn't to worry about memory barriers. Since
we're here, other cleanups are also applied.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/virtualization/20240327155750-mutt-send-email-mst@kernel.org/

PATCH[1] improves vhost_get_avail_idx() so that smp_rmb() is applied if
         needed. Besides, the sanity checks on the retrieved available
         queue index are also squeezed to vhost_get_avail_idx()
PATCH[2] drops the local variable @last_avail_idx since it's equivalent
         to vq->last_avail_idx
PATCH[3] improves vhost_get_avail_head(), similar to what we're doing
         for vhost_get_avail_idx(), so that the relevant sanity checks
         on the head are squeezed to vhost_get_avail_head()
PATCH[4] Reformat vhost_{get, put}_user() by using tab instead of space
         as the terminator for each line

Gavin Shan (3):
  vhost: Drop variable last_avail_idx in vhost_get_vq_desc()
  vhost: Improve vhost_get_avail_head()
  vhost: Reformat vhost_{get, put}_user()

Michael S. Tsirkin (1):
  vhost: Improve vhost_get_avail_idx() with smp_rmb()
