kvm_vcpu_kick() must issue a general memory barrier prior to reading
vcpu->mode in order to ensure correctness of the mutual-exclusion
memory barrier pattern used with vcpu->requests. While the cmpxchg
called from kvm_vcpu_kick():
kvm_vcpu_kick
kvm_arch_vcpu_should_kick
kvm_vcpu_exiting_guest_mode
cmpxchg
implies general memory barriers before and after the operation, that
implication is only valid when cmpxchg succeeds. We need an explicit
barrier for when it fails, otherwise a VCPU thread on its entry path
that reads zero for vcpu->requests does not exclude the possibility
the requesting thread sees !IN_GUEST_MODE when it reads vcpu->mode.
kvm_make_all_cpus_request already had a barrier, so we remove it, as
now it would be redundant.
