[PATCH v3] KVM: x86: Fix potential preemption when get the current kvmclock timestamp

[Wanpeng Li <kernellwp@gmail.com>]

 BUG: using __this_cpu_read() in preemptible [00000000] code: qemu-system-x86/2809
 caller is __this_cpu_preempt_check+0x13/0x20

This can be reproduced by run kvm-unit-tests/hyperv_stimer.flat w/ 
CONFIG_PREEMPT and CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT enabled.

Safe access to per-CPU data requires a couple of constraints, though: the 
thread working with the data cannot be preempted and it cannot be migrated 
while it manipulates per-CPU variables. If the thread is preempted, the 
thread that replaces it could try to work with the same variables; migration 
to another CPU could also cause confusion. However there is no preemption 
disable when reads host per-CPU tsc rate to calculate the current kvmclock 
timestamp.

This patch fixes it by utilizing get_cpu/put_cpu pair to guarantee both 
__this_cpu_read() and rdtsc() are not preempted.

v2 -> v3:
 * update patch description
v1 -> v2:
 * utilize get_cpu/put_cpu pair to protect both __this_cpu_read and rdtsc()
