[PATCH v3 6/7] KVM: mips, x86: do not rely on KVM_REQ_UNHALT
From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Mon Aug 22 2022 - 13:07:19 EST
KVM_REQ_UNHALT is a weird request that simply reports the value of
kvm_arch_vcpu_runnable() on exit from kvm_vcpu_halt(). Only
MIPS and x86 are looking at it, the others just clear it. Check
the state of the vCPU directly so that the request is handled
as a nop on all architectures.
No functional change intended, except for corner cases where an
event arrive immediately after a signal become pending or after
another similar host-side event.
