From 0547758a6de3cc71a0cfdd031a3621a30db6a68b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Christopherson Date: Thu, 19 May 2022 07:57:11 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86/kvm: Alloc dummy async #PF token outside of raw spinlock Drop the raw spinlock in kvm_async_pf_task_wake() before allocating the the dummy async #PF token, the allocator is preemptible on PREEMPT_RT kernels and must not be called from truly atomic contexts. Opportunistically document why it's ok to loop on allocation failure, i.e. why the function won't get stuck in an infinite loop.
