From: Carsten Otte <co...@de.ibm.com>
This patch fixes an incorrectness in the kvm backend for s390.
In case virtual cpus are being created before the corresponding
memory slot is being registered, we need to update the sie
control blocks for the virtual cpus. In order to do that, we
use the vcpu->mutex to lock out kvm_run and friends. This way
we can ensure a consistent update of the memory for the entire
smp configuration.
