KVM: fix spin_lock_init order on x86
commit e9ad4ec8379ad1ba6f68b8ca1c26b50b5ae0a327 upstream. Moving the initialization earlier is needed in 4.6 because kvm_arch_init_vm is now using mmu_lock, causing lockdep to complain: [ 284.440294] INFO: trying to register non-static key. [ 284.445259] the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation. [ 284.450736] turning off the locking correctness validator. ... [ 284.528318] [<ffffffff810aecc3>] lock_acquire+0xd3/0x240 [ 284.533733] [<ffffffffa0305aa0>] ? kvm_page_track_register_notifier+0x20/0x60 [kvm] [ 284.541467] [<ffffffff81715581>] _raw_spin_lock+0x41/0x80 [ 284.546960] [<ffffffffa0305aa0>] ? kvm_page_track_register_notifier+0x20/0x60 [kvm] [ 284.554707] [<ffffffffa0305aa0>] kvm_page_track_register_notifier+0x20/0x60 [kvm] [ 284.562281] [<ffffffffa02ece70>] kvm_mmu_init_vm+0x20/0x30 [kvm] [ 284.568381] [<ffffffffa02dbf7a>] kvm_arch_init_vm+0x1ea/0x200 [kvm] [ 284.574740] [<ffffffffa02bff3f>] kvm_dev_ioctl+0xbf/0x4d0 [kvm] However, it also helps fixing a preexisting problem, which is why this patch is also good for stable kernels: kvm_create_vm was incrementing current->mm->mm_count but not decrementing it at the out_err label (in case kvm_init_mmu_notifier failed). The new initialization order makes it possible to add the required mmdrop without adding a new error label.
