Oliver Upton 75360a9a33 KVM: arm64: vgic-v3: Reinstate IRQ lock ordering for LPI xarray
Zenghui reports that running a KVM guest with an assigned device and
lockdep enabled produces an unfriendly splat due to an inconsistent irq
context when taking the lpi_xa's spinlock.

This is no good as in rare cases the last reference to an LPI can get
dropped after injection of a cached LPI translation. In this case,
vgic_put_irq() will release the IRQ struct and take the lpi_xa's
spinlock to erase it from the xarray.

Reinstate the IRQ ordering and update the lockdep hint accordingly. Note
that there is no irqsave equivalent of might_lock(), so just explictly
grab and release the spinlock on lockdep kernels.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
