KVM: x86/xen: Fix SRCU/RCU usage in readers of evtchn_ports
The evtchnfd structure itself must be protected by either kvm->lock or SRCU. Use the former in kvm_xen_eventfd_update(), since the lock is being taken anyway; kvm_xen_hcall_evtchn_send() instead is a reader and does not need kvm->lock, and is called in SRCU critical section from the kvm_x86_handle_exit function. It is also important to use rcu_read_{lock,unlock}() in kvm_xen_hcall_evtchn_send(), because idr_remove() will *not* use synchronize_srcu() to wait for readers to complete. Remove a superfluous if (kvm) check before calling synchronize_srcu() in kvm_xen_eventfd_deassign() where kvm has been dereferenced already.
