This is not the only thing your patch is doing, and the "other" change
definitely needs a lot more explanation about why you did it and how you
audited the code to ensure that it is safe.

Sorry, for not mentioning this earlier. I am moving the
kvm_arch_init_vm() call mainly to go after mutex_init(&kvm->slots_lock)
since I am calling the x86_set_memory_region() (which uses slots_lock)
in the vm_init() hooks (for AVIC initialization).
Lemme re-check if this would be safe for other code.
No problem. In the meanwhile a patch got in ("KVM: fix spin_lock_init
order on x86") that should help you.
Thanks,
Paolo
Right.... that's just what I need :) I'll re-base to the latest tip then.
Thanks,
Suravee
