This patch introduces two functions for activating/de-activating vGPU in
mdev ops.
A racing condition was found between virtual vblank emulation and KVGMT
mdev release path. V-blank emulation will emulate and inject V-blank
interrupt for every active vGPU with holding gvt->lock, while in mdev
release path, it will directly release hypervisor handle without changing
vGPU status or taking gvt->lock, so a kernel oops is encountered when
vblank emulation is injecting a interrupt with a invalid hypervisor
handle. (Reported by Terrence)
To solve this problem, we factor out vGPU activation/de-activation from
vGPU creation/destruction path and let KVMGT mdev release ops de-activate
the vGPU before release hypervisor handle. Once a vGPU is de-activated,
GVT-g will not emulate v-blank for it or touch the hypervisor handle.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
