KVM: protect concurrent make_all_cpus_request
make_all_cpus_request contains a race condition which can trigger false request completed status, as follows: CPU0 CPU1 if (test_and_set_bit(req,&vcpu->requests)) .... if (test_and_set_bit(req,&vcpu->requests)) .. return proceed to smp_call_function_many(wait=1) Use a spinlock to serialize concurrent CPUs.
