The issue only occurs after applying the vlpi_map_rework patches, and we
can see the patches only affect VM; it changes its_create_device() a

way to send it out for some insights.
I am suspecting below code; if alloc_lpis == false, what will happen?

Anyway, I will investigate more on this.How does this relate to the patch posted in this discussion? The

proposed changes turn the locking from a mutex into a raw_spinlock.

not only the patch posted in the mail directly. The first patch
*"**irqchip/gic-v3-its: Make vlpi_map allocations atomic" works well in
our internal tree, and my new testing is against the other 3 patches in
your vlpi-map-rework branch, as I promised. I'm sorry if I didn't state
this clearly.
completely untested. I'll see if I can get some brain bandwidth in the
next couple of weeks to get back to it...
