[PATCH v2] xen/events: Fix race in set_evtchn_to_irq

[Maximilian Heyne <mheyne@xxxxxxxxx>]

There is a TOCTOU issue in set_evtchn_to_irq. Rows in the evtchn_to_irq
mapping are lazily allocated in this function. The check whether the row
is already present and the row initialization is not synchronized. Two
threads can at the same time allocate a new row for evtchn_to_irq and
add the irq mapping to the their newly allocated row. One thread will
overwrite what the other has set for evtchn_to_irq[row] and therefore
the irq mapping is lost. This will trigger a BUG_ON later in
bind_evtchn_to_cpu:

This patch sets evtchn_to_irq rows via a cmpxchg operation so that they
will be set only once. The row is now cleared before writing it to
evtchn_to_irq in order to not create a race once the row is visible for
other threads.

While at it, do not require the page to be zeroed, because it will be
overwritten with -1's in clear_evtchn_to_irq_row anyway.
