[patch 139/149] KVM: MMU: Dont read pdptrs with mmu spinlock held in mmu_alloc_roots

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Jul 01 2010 - 14:27:28 EST


2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Avi Kivity <avi@xxxxxxxxxx>

On svm, kvm_read_pdptr() may require reading guest memory, which can sleep.

Push the spinlock into mmu_alloc_roots(), and only take it after we've read
the pdptr.
