Hi Tony,

3. Since you're already making changes related to gisc registration, you might consider a 3rd patch that looks at the return code for kvm_s390_gisc_unregister and tags the unexpected error rc somehow.  This came up in a recent conversation I had with Michael, see this conversation towards the bottom:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-s390/0ddf808c-e929-c975-1b39-5ebc1f2fab62@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ 

4. While looking at patch 1 I also had a question re: the AP_RESPONSE_OTHERWISE_CHANGED path in vfio_ap_irq_enable.  Here's a snippet of the current code:

	case AP_RESPONSE_OTHERWISE_CHANGED:
		/* We could not modify IRQ settings: clear new configuration */
		vfio_unpin_pages(&q->matrix_mdev->vdev, nib, 1);
		kvm_s390_gisc_unregister(kvm, isc);
		break;

Is it safe to unpin the page before unregistering the gisc in this case?  Or shouldn't the unpin happen after we have unregistered the gisc / set the IAM?
