KVM: add kvm_request_pending
A first step in vcpu->requests encapsulation. Additionally, we now use READ_ONCE() when accessing vcpu->requests, which ensures we always load vcpu->requests when it's accessed. This is important as other threads can change it any time. Also, READ_ONCE() documents that vcpu->requests is used with other threads, likely requiring memory barriers, which it does. Signed-off-by: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@redhat.com> [ Documented the new use of READ_ONCE() and converted another check in arch/mips/kvm/vz.c ] Signed-off-by: Andrew Jones <drjones@redhat.com> Acked-by: Christoffer Dall <cdall@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Christoffer Dall <cdall@linaro.org>
