KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Use new mutex to synchronize MMU setup
Currently the HV KVM code uses kvm->lock in conjunction with a flag,
kvm->arch.mmu_ready, to synchronize MMU setup and hold off vcpu
execution until the MMU-related data structures are ready. However,
this means that kvm->lock is being taken inside vcpu->mutex, which
is contrary to Documentation/virtual/kvm/locking.txt and results in
lockdep warnings.
To fix this, we add a new mutex, kvm->arch.mmu_setup_lock, which nests
inside the vcpu mutexes, and is taken in the places where kvm->lock
was taken that are related to MMU setup.
Additionally we take the new mutex in the vcpu creation code at the
point where we are creating a new vcore, in order to provide mutual
exclusion with kvmppc_update_lpcr() and ensure that an update to
kvm->arch.lpcr doesn't get missed, which could otherwise lead to a
stale vcore->lpcr value.
