Could that be racy? Can the irqfd be de-assigned meanwhile? Or am I
seeing ghosts here? ;-)

Given that you drop the coarse grained locking around
__kvm_vgic_sync_hwstate(), can you adjust the comment on top of it and
either delete it or relax the locking requirement?

Have I got this right that most of the locking is not needed as long as
we deal only with VCPU specific data structures, as any preemption would
not execute code handling this very VCPU again?


Also it would be beneficial to note the change of the locking in the
commit message (or even make it a separate patch). That would help
possible bisecting.

Is that really needed? I reckon we can only get here if an irqfd has
been assigned, which is guarded already by that initialization check.

I wonder if that check could be done earlier at assignment time. Does
that not work because the assignment is generic code and has no notion
of the maximum supported IRQ numbers as the VGIC has?

Cheers,
Andre.
