Marc Zyngier 0371fa0337 KVM: arm/arm64: vgic-its: Take the srcu lock when writing to guest memory
[ Upstream commit a6ecfb11bf37743c1ac49b266595582b107b61d4 ]

When halting a guest, QEMU flushes the virtual ITS caches, which
amounts to writing to the various tables that the guest has allocated.

When doing this, we fail to take the srcu lock, and the kernel
shouts loudly if running a lockdep kernel:

The fix is to obviously take the srcu lock, just like we do on the
read side of things since bf308242ab. One wonders why this wasn't
fixed at the same time, but hey...

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
