+- kvm_lock is taken outside kvm->mmu_lock
Not surprising since one is a mutex and one is an rwlock. :) You can drop this hunk as well as the "Opportunistically update KVM's locking documentation" sentence in the commit message.

What do you mean exactly by "module probing"? Is it anything else than what is serialized by vendor_module_lock? Paolo
