KVM: Convert kvm_lock back to non-raw spinlock
In commit e935b8372cf8 ("KVM: Convert kvm_lock to raw_spinlock"), the kvm_lock was made a raw lock. However, the kvm mmu_shrink() function tries to grab the (non-raw) mmu_lock within the scope of the raw locked kvm_lock being held. This leads to the following: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/rtmutex.c:659 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 55, name: kswapd0 Preemption disabled at:[<ffffffffa0376eac>] mmu_shrink+0x5c/0x1b0 [kvm] Pid: 55, comm: kswapd0 Not tainted 3.4.34_preempt-rt Call Trace: [<ffffffff8106f2ad>] __might_sleep+0xfd/0x160 [<ffffffff817d8d64>] rt_spin_lock+0x24/0x50 [<ffffffffa0376f3c>] mmu_shrink+0xec/0x1b0 [kvm] [<ffffffff8111455d>] shrink_slab+0x17d/0x3a0 [<ffffffff81151f00>] ? mem_cgroup_iter+0x130/0x260 [<ffffffff8111824a>] balance_pgdat+0x54a/0x730 [<ffffffff8111fe47>] ? set_pgdat_percpu_threshold+0xa7/0xd0 [<ffffffff811185bf>] kswapd+0x18f/0x490 [<ffffffff81070961>] ? get_parent_ip+0x11/0x50 [<ffffffff81061970>] ? __init_waitqueue_head+0x50/0x50 [<ffffffff81118430>] ? balance_pgdat+0x730/0x730 [<ffffffff81060d2b>] kthread+0xdb/0xe0 [<ffffffff8106e122>] ? finish_task_switch+0x52/0x100 [<ffffffff817e1e94>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 [<ffffffff81060c50>] ? __init_kthread_worker+0x After the previous patch, kvm_lock need not be a raw spinlock anymore, so change it back.
