Indeed.

I have checked it's protected under srcu_read_lock/unlock() for existing usages, 
so did JimM.

TBH, patch 3 is only inspired by the fact why the protection against 
kvm->arch.msr_filter
does not appear for kvm->arch.pmu_event_filter, and my limited searching scope 
has not
yet confirmed whether it prevents the same spider.

No comments on the target kernel cycle, Capt.
