[PATCH V2 4/9] vhost: reset invalidate_count in vhost_set_vring_num_addr()

From: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com>
Date: 2019-07-31 08:47:24
Also in: kvm, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, virtio host (vhost) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, "Michael S. Tsirkin", Jason Wang

The vhost_set_vring_num_addr() could be called in the middle of
invalidate_range_start() and invalidate_range_end(). If we don't reset
invalidate_count after the un-registering of MMU notifier, the
invalidate_cont will run out of sync (e.g never reach zero). This will
in fact disable the fast accessor path. Fixing by reset the count to
zero.
