Please document that both fields are written under vmid_lock, and read
outside it.

Please use kvm_flush_remote_tlbs(kvm) instead. All you need to do to
support it is check for KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH and handle it by calling
__kvm_riscv_hfence_gvma_all. Also, since your spinlock is global you
probably should release it around the call to kvm_flush_remote_tlbs.
(Think of an implementation that has a very small number of VMID bits).

This barrier is not necessary. Writes to vmid->vmid need not be ordered
with writes to vmid->vmid_version, because the accesses happen in
completely different places.
(As a rule of thumb, each smp_wmb() should have a matching smp_rmb()
somewhere, and this one doesn't).
