commit 1a83e0b9c492a0eaeacd6fbb858fc81d04ab9c3e Author: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Mon Jul 20 10:51:22 2020 -0700 Commit: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Wed Jul 22 07:57:07 2020 -0400 virtio-balloon: Add locking to prevent possible race when starting hinting There is already locking in place when we are stopping free page hinting but there is not similar protections in place when we start. I can only assume this was overlooked as in most cases the page hinting should not be occurring when we are starting the hinting, however there is still a chance we could be processing hints by the time we get back around to restarting the hinting so we are better off making sure to protect the state with the mutex lock rather than just updating the value with no protections.
