KVM: Disable CPU hotplug during hardware enabling/disabling
Disable CPU hotplug when enabling/disabling hardware to prevent the corner case where if the following sequence occurs: 1. A hotplugged CPU marks itself online in cpu_online_mask 2. The hotplugged CPU enables interrupt before invoking KVM's ONLINE callback 3 hardware_{en,dis}able_all() is invoked on another CPU the hotplugged CPU will be included in on_each_cpu() and thus get sent through hardware_{en,dis}able_nolock() before kvm_online_cpu() is called. start_secondary { ... set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true); <- 1 ... local_irq_enable(); <- 2 ... cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE); <- 3 } KVM currently fudges around this race by keeping track of which CPUs have done hardware enabling (see commit 1b6c016818a5 "KVM: Keep track of which cpus have virtualization enabled"), but that's an inefficient, convoluted, and hacky solution.
