Re: [PATCH] vhost: Use mutex to protect vq_irq setup

Both irq_bypass_register_producer() and irq_bypass_unregister_producer()
require process context to run. Change the call context lock from
spinlock to mutex to protect the setup process to avoid deadlocks.

Hi Eli:

During review we spot that the spinlock is not necessary. And it was 
already protected by vq mutex. So it was removed in this commit:

Thanks
