RISC-V: KVM: Move HGEI[E|P] CSR access to IMSIC virtualization
Currently, the common AIA functions kvm_riscv_vcpu_aia_has_interrupts()
and kvm_riscv_aia_wakeon_hgei() lookup HGEI line using an array of VCPU
pointers before accessing HGEI[E|P] CSR which is slow and prone to race
conditions because there is a separate per-hart lock for the VCPU pointer
array and a separate per-VCPU rwlock for IMSIC VS-file (including HGEI
line) used by the VCPU. Due to these race conditions, it is observed
on QEMU RISC-V host that Guest VCPUs sleep in WFI and never wakeup even
with interrupt pending in the IMSIC VS-file because VCPUs were waiting
for HGEI wakeup on the wrong host CPU.
The IMSIC virtualization already keeps track of the HGEI line and the
associated IMSIC VS-file used by each VCPU so move the HGEI[E|P] CSR
access to IMSIC virtualization so that costly HGEI line lookup can be
avoided and likelihood of race-conditions when updating HGEI[E|P] CSR
is also reduced.
