vgpu ppgtt notification was split into 2 steps, the first step is to update PVINFO's pdp register and then write PVINFO's g2v_notify register with action code to tirgger ppgtt notification to GVT side. currently these steps were not atomic operations due to no any protection, so it is easy to enter race condition state during the MTBF, stress and IGT test to cause GPU hang. the solution is to add a lock to make vgpu ppgtt notication as atomic operation.

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.
