Subject: KVM: Fix unlikely kvm_create vs decache_vcpus_on_cpu race
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5e58cfe41c7e5902c32bb7f62993d43fb4c48ccf;p=linux-beck.git

KVM: Fix unlikely kvm_create vs decache_vcpus_on_cpu race

We add the kvm to the vm_list before initializing the vcpu mutexes,
which can be mutex_trylock()'ed by decache_vcpus_on_cpu().
