[RFC PATCH 03/18] KVM: Drop kvm_count_lock and instead protect kvm_usage_count with kvm_lock

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Isaku Yamahata <isaku.yamahata@xxxxxxxxx>

Because kvm_count_lock unnecessarily complicates the KVM locking convention
Drop kvm_count_lock and instead protect kvm_usage_count with kvm_lock for
simplicity.

Opportunistically add some comments on locking.
