Oliver Upton 53921242cf KVM: arm64: Fix read-side race on updates to vcpu reset state
[ Upstream commit 6654f9dfcb88fea3b9affc180dc3c04333d0f306 ]

KVM correctly serializes writes to a vCPU's reset state, however since
we do not take the KVM lock on the read side it is entirely possible to
read state from two different reset requests.

Cure the race for now by taking the KVM lock when reading the
reset_state structure.

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.
