6.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Uros Bizjak <ubizjak@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 6623b0217d0c9bed80bfa43b778ce1c0eb03b497 ]
"enum vcpu_state" is not compatible with "u8" type for all targets,
resulting in:
error: initialization of 'u8 *' {aka 'unsigned char *'} from incompatible pointer type 'enum vcpu_state *'
for LoongArch. Correct the type of "old" variable to "u8".
Fixes: fea0e1820b51 ("locking/pvqspinlock: Use try_cmpxchg() in qspinlock_paravirt.h")
