Colin Xu f25a49ab8a drm/i915/gvt: Use vgpu_lock to protect per vgpu access
The patch set splits out 2 small locks from the original big gvt lock:
  - vgpu_lock protects per-vGPU data and logic, especially the vGPU
    trap emulation path.
  - sched_lock protects gvt scheudler structure, context schedule logic
    and vGPU's schedule data.

Use vgpu_lock to replace the gvt big lock. By doing this, the
mmio read/write trap path, vgpu virtual event emulation and other
vgpu related process, would be protected under per vgpu_lock.

v9:
  - Change commit author since the patches are improved a lot compared
    with original version.
    Original author: Pei Zhang <pei.zhang@intel.com>
  - Rebase to latest gvt-staging.
v8:
  - Correct coding and comment style.
  - Rebase to latest gvt-staging.
v7:
  - Remove gtt_lock since already proteced by gvt_lock and vgpu_lock.
  - Fix a typo in intel_gvt_deactivate_vgpu, unlock the wrong lock.
v6:
  - Rebase to latest gvt-staging.
v5:
  - Rebase to latest gvt-staging.
  - intel_vgpu_page_track_handler should use vgpu_lock.
v4:
  - Rebase to latest gvt-staging.
  - Protect vgpu->active access with vgpu_lock.
  - Do not wait gpu idle in vgpu_lock.
v3: update to latest code base
v2: add gvt->lock in function gvt_check_vblank_emulation

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
