[PATCH v2 0/1] KVM: x86/xen: Fix PREEMPT_RT sleeping lock bug

["shaikh.kamal" <shaikhkamal2012@gmail.com>]

Hi Sean,

Thanks for the detailed feedback. I've implemented v2 using unconditional
read_trylock() as you suggested.

Changes in v2:
- Use read_trylock() unconditionally (no in_hardirq() check)
- Apply trylock to both gpc lock acquisitions
- Return -EWOULDBLOCK on contention to use existing slow path

Changes from v1:
- v1 used irq_work deferral (rejected for code duplication)
- v2 uses trylock, leveraging existing slow path (cleaner)

Testing:
- PREEMPT_RT kernel: No crash with syzbot reproducer after 30+ min
- non-RT kernel: No regression

This minimal fix preserves compatibility with your planned gpc API cleanup.

Thanks,
Kamal
