x86/ioreq server: release the p2m lock after mmio is handled
Routine hvmemul_do_io() may need to peek the p2m type of a gfn to
select the ioreq server. For example, operations on gfns with
p2m_ioreq_server type will be delivered to a corresponding ioreq
server, and this requires that the p2m type not be switched back
to p2m_ram_rw during the emulation process. To avoid this race
condition, we delay the release of p2m lock in hvm_hap_nested_page_fault()
until mmio is handled.
Note: previously in hvm_hap_nested_page_fault(), put_gfn() was moved
before the handling of mmio, due to a deadlock risk between the p2m
lock and the event lock(in commit
77b8dfe). Later, a per-event channel
lock was introduced in commit
de6acb7, to send events. So we do not
need to worry about the deadlock issue.
