[PATCH 0/3] vhost_task: KVM: Fix a race where KVM wakes an exited task

[Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>]

Fix a bug where KVM attempts to wake a vhost task that has already exited in
response to a fatal signal, and tack on a few cleanups to harden against
introducing similar bugs in the future.

Somehow, this only started causing problems when commit 56180dd20c19 ("futex:
Use RCU-based per-CPU reference counting instead of rcuref_t") landed.  I have
no idea why the futex changes exposed the bug, and I don't care all that much,
as this is firmly a KVM bug.

Sean Christopherson (3):
  vhost_task: KVM: Don't wake KVM x86's recovery thread if vhost task
    was killed
  vhost_task: Allow caller to omit handle_sigkill() callback
  KVM: x86/mmu: Don't register a sigkill callback for NX hugepage
    recovery tasks
