Fix a bunch of small issues that came up during the previous round of fixes.
They are mostly extremely unlikely races, but they should be fixed
nonetheless.
v2->v3
* Use READ_ONCE to pair with WRITE_ONCE in the first patch
* Fix leaking PGM_ADDRESSING also in kvm_s390_keyop() and related functions
* Fix and improve commit messages
* Use slots_arch_lock instead of slots_lock for ESSA operations
* Use normal spin_{,un}lock() functions instead of scoped_guard to avoid
mixing the two styles
* Use the newly introduced vcpu->arch.initialized to determine whether the
SCA entry needs to be cleared
* Improve handling of -EINTR; handle_mvpg_pei() needed some refactoring to
deal with it properly
* Three new patches:
- Free the mmu cache when kvm_arch_vcpu_create() fails
- Fix ordering when adding to SCA
- Fix cleanup in kvm_s390_pv_create_cpu()
v1->v2
* Drop some patches that have been picked upstream in the meantime.
* Drop patch 3, as it was trying to fix a bug that does not exist
* Avoid the NULL gmap dereference by using a flag
* Fix the return value of kvm_s390_[gp]et_skeys too
* Use kvm->slots_arch_lock instead of kvm->slots_lock for CMMA and ESSA
handling, to avoid potential deadlocks with the RCU.
* Three new patches to fix other issues that came out while fixing the
other issues

When creating a new vCPU, kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu() will call
kvm_arch_vcpu_postcreate() after the file descriptor for the new vCPU
has been created. The new file descriptor has not been returned yet,
but a malicious userspace program could try to guess it.
If a malicious userspace program manages to start the newly created vCPU
before kvm_arch_vcpu_postcreate() is called, __vcpu_run() will try to
dereference vcpu->arch.gmap and trigger a NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by adding a new field to struct kvm_vcpu_arch to keep track of
the initialization status of the vCPU. Refuse to run a vCPU that is not
fully initialized.

Fixes: e38c884df921 ("KVM: s390: Switch to new gmap")

If kvm_s390_set_cmma_bits() is asked to set CMMA values outside of a
memslot, PGM_ADDRESSING (5) is returned, instead of a negative error
value.
Same issue with kvm_s390_{g,s}et_skeys(), kvm_s390_keyop(), and
dat_reset_reference_bit().
Fix by returning -EFAULT whenever the return value would be > 0, which
is consistent with the behaviour before the gmap rewrite.

An unlikely race between __do_essa() and kvm_s390_vm_start_migration(),
kvm_s390_vm_stop_migration(), or dat_get_cmma() was possible.
Fix by locking kvm->slots_lock. Since this is not a hot path, the
overhead of an additional mutex is negligible.

When a memslot is removed, all ptes that mapped the slot are cleared or
even deallocated. If this happens while the system is in migration
mode, and if cmma-dirty pages are removed, the cmma-dirty counter will
not reflect reality.
Fix by appropriately decrementing the cmma-dirty counter when removing
a memslot.

gmap_remove_child() needs to be called while holding the children_lock
of the parent gmap. This was not the case in the error handling path of
kvm_arch_vcpu_create() for UCONTROL guests.
Fix by adding the missing lock.

If an attempt is made to create a vCPU with an already existing ID,
the duplicated vCPU will be destroyed. When destroying a vCPU, its
ESCA entry will be cleared. In the above scenario, the spurious
duplicate vCPU is destroyed, but the ESCA entry corresponding to the
original vCPU is cleared.
Fix by skipping clearing the ESCA entry if the vCPU creation was not
successful, i.e. if the pointer to the ESCA in the state description is
not set.

When adding a new vCPU to the SCA area, the validity bit in the MCN was
set before the pointer to the state description, potentially allowing
for a race.

If creating a protected vCPU in kvm_s390_pv_create_cpu() fails,
kvm_s390_pv_destroy_cpu() was called, which checks whether the vCPU has
a PV handle and exits doing nothing otherwise. At that point, due to
not having created the protected vCPU, the PV handle will not be set,
and kvm_s390_pv_destroy_cpu() will do nothing, thus leaking the
allocated memory.
Fix by factoring out the code to free and reset a PV vCPU; call it from
kvm_s390_pv_destroy_cpu() and kvm_s390_pv_create_cpu().

while highly unlikely, I think sashiko is right, the compiler could reoder the
gmap assignment. A barrier() before the WRITE_ONCE would do but smp_store_release
does not hurt (and it has some sanitizer support).

I think we really do not need smp_load_acquire here and below, but it certainly
is nicer to have equivalent pairs. So if you use a barrier, its fine to leave it
as is, but maybe simply use smp_load_acquire here and below and smp_store_release
above.
