Revert "KVM: Fix vcpu_array[0] races"
Now that KVM loads from vcpu_array if and only if the target index is valid with respect to online_vcpus, i.e. now that it is safe to erase a not-fully-onlined vCPU entry, revert to storing into vcpu_array before success is guaranteed. If xa_store() fails, which _should_ be impossible, then putting the vCPU's reference to 'struct kvm' results in a refcounting bug as the vCPU fd has been installed and owns the vCPU's reference. This was found by inspection, but forcing the xa_store() to fail confirms the problem: | Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff800080ecd960 | Call trace: | _raw_spin_lock_irq+0x2c/0x70 | kvm_irqfd_release+0x24/0xa0 | kvm_vm_release+0x1c/0x38 | __fput+0x88/0x2ec | ____fput+0x10/0x1c | task_work_run+0xb0/0xd4 | do_exit+0x210/0x854 | do_group_exit+0x70/0x98 | get_signal+0x6b0/0x73c | do_signal+0xa4/0x11e8 | do_notify_resume+0x60/0x12c | el0_svc+0x64/0x68 | el0t_64_sync_handler+0x84/0xfc | el0t_64_sync+0x190/0x194 | Code: b9000909 d503201f 2a1f03e1 52800028 (88e17c08) Practically speaking, this is a non-issue as xa_store() can't fail, absent a nasty kernel bug. But the code is visually jarring and technically broken. This reverts commit afb2acb2e3a32e4d56f7fbd819769b98ed1b7520.
