[kvm-devel] [PATCH] convert init_rmode_tss to slots_lock

[Marcelo Tosatti]

init_rmode_tss was forgotten during the conversion from mmap_sem to
slots_lock.

There are several sites reading the slots data without taking           
slots_lock, including tdp_page_fault. I'll be sending a patch 
to move acquision to vcpu_run as suggested by Avi later today.
