[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 1/2] IOMMU/spinlock: Fix a bug found in AMD IOMMU initialization.

[Quan Xu <quan.xu@xxxxxxxxx>]

When iommu_setup() is called in __start_xen(), interrupts have
already been enabled, and nothing disables (without reenabling)
them again in the path that leads to calling
set_iommu_interrupt_handler(). There's therefore no risk of them
being disabled and needing remaining so, and hence no need for
saving and restoring the flags. This means that, even if interrupt
would need to be disabled when taking pcidevs_lock, spin_lock_irq()
and spin_unlock_irq() could be used.

Inside set_iommu_interrupt_handler(), pcidevs_lock serializes calls
to pci_get_pdev(), which does not require interrupts to be disabled
during its execution. In fact, pcidevs_lock is always (except for
this case) taken without disabling interrupts, and disabling them in
this case would make the BUG_ON() in check_lock() trigger, if it
wasn't for the fact that spinlock debugging checks are still
disabled, during initialization, when iommu_setup() (which then end
up calling set_iommu_interrupt_handler()) is called.

In order to fix this, we can use just plain spin_lock() and spin_unlock(),
instead of spin_lock_irqsave() and spin_unlock_irqrestore().
