Linux kernel source tree
The group notifier that handles the VFIO_GROUP_NOTIFY_SET_KVM event must
use the required locks in proper locking order to dynamically update the
guest's APCB. The proper locking order is:
1. matrix_dev->guests_lock: required to use the KVM pointer to
update a KVM guest's APCB.
2. matrix_mdev->kvm->lock: required to update a KVM guest's APCB.
3. matrix_dev->mdevs_lock: required to store or access the data
stored in a struct ap_matrix_mdev instance.
Two macros are introduced to acquire and release the locks in the proper
order. These macros are now used by the group notifier functions.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
