Merge tag 'kvm-x86-fixes-6.8-2' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD
KVM x86 fixes for 6.8, round 2:
- When emulating an atomic access, mark the gfn as dirty in the memslot
to fix a bug where KVM could fail to mark the slot as dirty during live
migration, ultimately resulting in guest data corruption due to a dirty
page not being re-copied from the source to the target.
- Check for mmu_notifier invalidation events before faulting in the pfn,
and before acquiring mmu_lock, to avoid unnecessary work and lock
contention. Contending mmu_lock is especially problematic on preemptible
kernels, as KVM may yield mmu_lock in response to the contention, which
severely degrades overall performance due to vCPUs making it difficult
for the task that triggered invalidation to make forward progress.
Note, due to another kernel bug, this fix isn't limited to preemtible
kernels, as any kernel built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=y will yield
contended rwlocks and spinlocks.
