Marc Zyngier 146f76cc84 KVM: arm64: PMU: Fix per-CPU access in preemptible context
Commit 07da1ffaa1 ("KVM: arm64: Remove host_cpu_context
member from vcpu structure") has, by removing the host CPU
context pointer, exposed that kvm_vcpu_pmu_restore_guest
is called in preemptible contexts:

[  266.932442] BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: qemu-system-aar/779

[  267.001697]  kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x2ac/0xab8

Note that the bug was always there, it is only the switch to
using percpu accessors that made it obvious.
The fix is to wrap these accesses in a preempt-disabled section,
so that we sample a coherent context on trap from the guest.

README

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.

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.
