Changes from V4:
- switch to use spinlock synchronize MMU notifier with accessors
Changes from V3:
- remove the unnecessary patch
Changes from V2:
- use seqlck helper to synchronize MMU notifier with vhost worker
Changes from V1:
- try not use RCU to syncrhonize MMU notifier with vhost worker
- set dirty pages after no readers
- return -EAGAIN only when we find the range is overlapped with
metadata

vhost: don't set uaddr for invalid address
vhost: validate MMU notifier registration
vhost: fix vhost map leak
vhost: reset invalidate_count in vhost_set_vring_num_addr()
vhost: mark dirty pages during map uninit
vhost: don't do synchronize_rcu() in vhost_uninit_vq_maps()

This generally looks more solid.
But this amounts to a significant overhaul of the code.
At this point how about we revert 7f466032dc9e5a61217f22ea34b2df932786bbfc
for this release, and then re-apply a corrected version
for the next one?
If possible, consider we've actually disabled the feature. How about just
queued those patches for next release?
Thanks
Sorry if I was unclear. My idea is that
1. I revert the disabled code
2. You send a patch readding it with all the fixes squashed
3. Maybe optimizations on top right away?
4. We queue *that* for next and see what happens.
And the advantage over the patchy approach is that the current patches
are hard to review. E.g. it's not reasonable to ask RCU guys to review
the whole of vhost for RCU usage but it's much more reasonable to ask
about a specific patch.
Ok. Then I agree to revert.
Thanks
