In various test cases that put the system under a heavy load, we can
sometimes see errors with missed TLB invalidations. In such cases we see
the interrupt arrive for the invalidation from the GuC, however the
actual processing of the completion is pushed onto a workqueue and
handled with all the other CT stuff, which might take longer than
expected. Since we expect TLB invalidations to complete within a
reasonable amount of time (at most ~250ms), and they do seem pretty
critical, allow handling directly from the CT fast-path.
v2 (José):
- Actually use the correct spinlock/unlock_irq, since pending_lock is
grabbed from IRQ.
v3:
- Don't publish the TLB fence on the list until after we fully
initialize it and successfully do the CT send. The list is now only
protected by the spin_lock pending_lock and we can't hold that
across the entire TLB send operation.
v4 (Matt Brost):
- Be careful with racing against fast CT path writing the seqno,
before we have actually published the fence.

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 Restructured Text 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.
