Subject: [PATCH] kvm,x86: Fix apf_task_wake_one() wq serialization
Git-commit: a0cff57bb2a41cb9cbf13d3203097b4156d8c0ae
Patch-mainline: v4.14-rc1
References: bsc#1060747
During code inspection, the following potential race was seen:
CPU0 CPU1
kvm_async_pf_task_wait apf_task_wake_one
[L] swait_active(&n->wq)
[S] prepare_to_swait(&n.wq)
[L] if (!hlist_unhahed(&n.link))
schedule() [S] hlist_del_init(&n->link);
Properly serialize swait_active() checks such that a wakeup is
not missed.
