KVM: Fix kvm_vcpu_block() task state race
There's still a race in kvm_vcpu_block(), if a wake_up_interruptible() call happens before the task state is set to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE: CPU0 CPU1 kvm_vcpu_block add_wait_queue kvm_cpu_has_interrupt = 0 set interrupt if (waitqueue_active()) wake_up_interruptible() kvm_cpu_has_pending_timer kvm_arch_vcpu_runnable signal_pending set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) schedule() Can be fixed by using prepare_to_wait() which sets the task state before testing for the wait condition.
