locking/pvqspinlock: Fix double hash race
When the lock holder vCPU is racing with the queue head: CPU 0 (lock holder) CPU1 (queue head) =================== ================= spin_lock(); spin_lock(); pv_kick_node(): pv_wait_head_or_lock(): if (!lp) { lp = pv_hash(lock, pn); xchg(&l->locked, _Q_SLOW_VAL); } WRITE_ONCE(pn->state, vcpu_halted); cmpxchg(&pn->state, vcpu_halted, vcpu_hashed); WRITE_ONCE(l->locked, _Q_SLOW_VAL); (void)pv_hash(lock, pn); In this case, lock holder inserts the pv_node of queue head into the hash table and set _Q_SLOW_VAL unnecessary. This patch avoids it by restoring/setting vcpu_hashed state after failing adaptive locking spinning.
