[PATCH v2 00/16] KVM: x86: gfn_to_pfn_cache fixes and cleanups

[Sean Christopherson]

The highlights are two fixes for bugs where "destroying" and "initializing"
a gfn=>pfn cache while it is being accessed results in various forms of
badness, e.g. re-initialization of an in-use lock, consuming a NULL pointer,
potential memory corruption, etc...

Everything else is cleanup to make the gpc APIs easier to use and harder
to use incorrectly.

David, patch 3 (KVM: x86: Always use non-compat vcpu_runstate_info size...)
in particular needs your eyeballs.  I'm pretty sure it's ok, but
confirmation from someone that actually uses KVM XEN would be nice.

v2:
 - Fix active vs. valid race by rejecting refresh() if the cache is
   currently invalid.
 - Tweak shortlogs to be "KVM" only.  Even though x86 is the only user
   of the caches, I think it makes sense to tag the changes as "full"
   KVM for future readers.
 - Add back the selftest (from the RFC) that triggers the race conditions.
 - Always use non-compat size for checking+refreshing runstate_info and
   make @len truly immutable.
 - Drop unmap() for the moment.  I started adding code to prevent "bad"
   usage, but without any user I couldn't figure out exactly what
   restrictions need to be in place.
 - Do more cleanup.

    helpers
  KVM: Skip unnecessary "unmap" if gpc is already valid during refresh
  KVM: selftests: Mark "guest_saw_irq" as volatile in xen_shinfo_test
