patch "virt: acrn: Do hcall_destroy_vm() before resource release" added to char-misc-linus

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    virt: acrn: Do hcall_destroy_vm() before resource release

to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: virt: acrn: Do hcall_destroy_vm() before resource release

The ACRN hypervisor has scenarios which could run a real-time guest VM.
The real-time guest VM occupies dedicated CPU cores, be assigned with
dedicated PCI devices. It can run without the Service VM after boot up.
hcall_destroy_vm() returns failure when a real-time guest VM refuses.
The clearing of flag ACRN_VM_FLAG_DESTROYED causes some kernel resource
double-freed in a later acrn_vm_destroy().

Do hcall_destroy_vm() before resource release to drop this chance to
destroy the VM if hypercall fails.
