KVM: arm64: Avoid vcpu->mutex v. kvm->lock inversion in CPU_ON
commit 0acc7239c20a8401b8968c2adace8f7c9b0295ae upstream. KVM/arm64 had the lock ordering backwards on vcpu->mutex and kvm->lock from the very beginning. One such example is the way vCPU resets are handled: the kvm->lock is acquired while handling a guest CPU_ON PSCI call. Add a dedicated lock to serialize writes to kvm_vcpu_arch::{mp_state, reset_state}. Promote all accessors of mp_state to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() as readers do not acquire the mp_state_lock. While at it, plug yet another race by taking the mp_state_lock in the KVM_SET_MP_STATE ioctl handler. As changes to MP state are now guarded with a dedicated lock, drop the kvm->lock acquisition from the PSCI CPU_ON path. Similarly, move the reader of reset_state outside of the kvm->lock and instead protect it with the mp_state_lock. Note that writes to reset_state::reset have been demoted to regular stores as both readers and writers acquire the mp_state_lock. While the kvm->lock inversion still exists in kvm_reset_vcpu(), at least now PSCI CPU_ON no longer depends on it for serializing vCPU reset.
