[PATCH v9 4/5] KVM: arm/arm64: remove coarse grain dist locking at kvm_vgic_sync_hwstate

From: Eric Auger
Date: Wed Mar 04 2015 - 05:23:16 EST


To prepare for irqfd addition, coarse grain locking is removed at
kvm_vgic_sync_hwstate level and finer grain locking is introduced in
vgic_process_maintenance only.
