The vfio_ap device driver registers a group notifier with VFIO when the
file descriptor for a VFIO mediated device for a KVM guest is opened to
receive notification that the KVM pointer is set (VFIO_GROUP_NOTIFY_SET_KVM
event). When the KVM pointer is set, the vfio_ap driver stashes the pointer
and calls the kvm_get_kvm() function to increment its reference counter.
When the notifier is called to make notification that the KVM pointer has
been set to NULL, the driver should clean up any resources associated with
the KVM pointer and decrement its reference counter. The current
implementation does not take care of this clean up.

Do we need a Fixes tag? Do we need this backported? In my opinion
this is necessary since the interrupt patches.

I don't like the name. The function does more that put_kvm. Maybe
something  like _disconnect_kvm()?

Is a plain assignment to arch.crypto.pqap_hook apropriate, or do we need
to take more care?

For instance kvm_arch_crypto_set_masks() takes kvm->lock before poking
kvm->arch.crypto.crycb.

I do not think so. The CRYCB is used by KVM to provide crypto resources
to the guest so it makes sense to protect it from changes to it while passing
the AP devices through to the guest. The hook is used only when an AQIC
executed on the guest is intercepted by KVM. If the notifier
is being invoked to notify vfio_ap that KVM has been set to NULL, this means
the guest is gone in which case there will be no AP instructions to intercept.

The lock question was already raised.

What are the exact circumstances under which this branch can be taken?

Under normal circumstances (i.e., the mdev fd is closed before the guest
terminates), this notifier is not be called because the release callback
(invoked when the mdev fd is closed) unregisters the notifier. This fix is
primarily to ensure that proper cleanup is done should the notifier get
called; for example, if userspace does not close the mdev fd before
shutting the guest down.
