KVM: arm64: vgic: Don't acquire its_lock before config_lock
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit 49e5d16 upstream.

commit f003277 ("KVM: arm64: Use config_lock to protect vgic
state") was meant to rectify a longstanding lock ordering issue in KVM
where the kvm->lock is taken while holding vcpu->mutex. As it so
happens, the aforementioned commit introduced yet another locking issue
by acquiring the its_lock before acquiring the config lock.

This is obviously wrong, especially considering that the lock ordering
is well documented in vgic.c. Reshuffle the locks once more to take the
config_lock before the its_lock. While at it, sprinkle in the lockdep
hinting that has become popular as of late to keep lockdep apprised of
our ordering.
