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.
